far, far away….

Probably one of the best games I’ve ever played. Great story, the actors returned to do the voices. It’s amazing. If you get a chance, pick it up. I would only recommend this for PS3 though since I’m against XBOX and the one for the Wii looks super cartoony. In fact, stay away from the Wii version all together. Don’t even waste your time with it or money.

Wish the story could go on longer though. It was a fairly short game. Maybe because I was playing it none stop for hours? Probably. Great game though.

On another note, picked up the Blu-ray version of the first Ghostbusters as well. Amazing, truly amazing. Outstanding quality, and the new short documentary on Ecto-1 was awesome. Crystal clear picture.

I gotta start keeping up with this blog. It’s been awhile.

If there’s something strange, in the neighborhood, honestly, who ya gonna call? Yea, that’s right, the Ghostbusters. This is by far one of my all time favorites and I’m sure yours too. Seriously, can’t complain about the cast, Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd and Harold Ramis. What’s sad is, incoming freshman to high school these days have no clue who those actors even are.

Why am I reviewing Ghostbusters? Well, like I said, great movie, but most important, to hype up the release of the movie in Blu-ray. I mean, come on, who wouldn’t want to see a crystal clear “Stay Puft Marshmallow Man” in 1080p? Oh, and not to mention, the new game coming out in June, which I will be purchasing and reviewing down the road. I’m sure it will be great, since the original cast are doing the voice overs.

I remember as a kid getting the toys for Christmas. Action figures, life size Proton Packs, the trap, the PKE Meter, oh and how can I forget, Ecto-1. All those toys were bad ass. I’m sure most of you can second that. What I would do, to get all those back… ebay. Nahhhh, as much as I would love too, I’ll pass. The movie on Blu-ray and the game for PS3 should do just fine for now, when they arrive.

Aight, back to the movie. So what makes this movie so good? For one, the awesome theme song by Ray Parker, Jr. Obviously everyone has that song stuck in their head. The effects are pretty good for its time. But most important, the acting and the hilarious lines that come with it…

Ray Stantz: “You know it just occurred to me, we’ve really haven’t had a completely successful test of this equipment.”

Peter Venkman: “Why worry? Each of us is wearing an unlicensed nuclear accelerator on its back.”

So if you haven’t seen this movie, you should be ashamed of yourself. Seriously though, if you haven’t seen it, watch it for the first time on June 16, 2009 in high definition. I most certainly will be reliving the past that week.
