I always liked how Egon and Peter just give up on trying for your name, just calling you rook or rookie. But Ray is constantly calling you different things like hoss, boss, bud, big man, and other friendly nicknames to hide the fact that he doesn't know your name either.
I remember a post saying our characters name was Luke Hoss, not to mention Hoss is capitalized anytime it's said
@@faye61His name is Bryan Welsh
Really? where does it say that I cant find it?@@fatcat1
I love that they personally considered this to be effectively the 3rd movie even years later
they wrote it considering it to be the 3rd
Actually, if you watch the special content on the game, Dan Arett actually says he does consider this the third film
You look like my aunt.
@@chrisakaschulbus4903 Underrated comment.
We don’t talk about that other ghostbusters from 2016
Fun fact the rookie appears in the comics of ghost busters running a separate branch of the ghostbusters company
I love that
@@ImmortalLlama - The Rookie also gets a name in the comics: Bryan Welsh, similar to the man who portrayed him in the 2009 game, Ryan French.
@@wargegeson8063 underrated games don’t get remastered
@@GetLostGames1 um did you respond to the right comment?
You’re actually supposed to destroy as much as possible because Peck pays for all of it. It earns you points or something like that.
Hence why I do it. Mostly for the points and for the story-line reason that I'm pissing Peck off.
There’s even an achievement if you do up to 3 mil of damage lmaoo. And another if you do less than 100,000 if i remember correctly.
Wait you get paid more? I did it for the psychotic pleasure, lol
I've always been really disappointed in Bill Murray's performance in this game, especially because you can tell that the rest of the returning cast, including Annie Potts and William Atherton, are having a blast. Hell, even Bill's fucking brother plays the mayor in this game and he's fantastic. (To be fair, Brian Doyle-Murray was already an accomplished voice actor by that point, and still does it a ton in addition to his numerous film and TV roles. I'd argue he's the better actor at this point in their lives.)
Also worth noting that the original version of this game on the 360 had a really fun cooperative multiplayer mode.
The multiplayer on xbox is still accessible!
@@miler2005nobody plays it now though 😕

After 4 years the legendary UA-cam channel Mind pulp finally did a review for Ghostbusters the video game what legends
I played the hardest difficulty and I hated it because the little shit stone angels
@@Redplayer1176 if you just do the side-dash move back and forth in front of the gate they'll dive at you but miss and hit the gate which lets you progress (in case you feel like beating it again)
Definitely a Bot comment
@@george1717 hell no I'm not doing that shit again I may have beaten it but I used a guest account to do it so I had to do it in one go and it was a bitch
I once rolled my car 12 times off the side of the interstate BUT Mind Pulp was playing so I survived without breaking a single bone. Magical stuff you guys are doing… just magical 🧙🏿♂️
With help of Mind Pulp, I got off crack-cocaine and turned my life around.

I used to be chronically homo until I started watching Mind Pulp. They too have made me realize I need to man up so this past month was the last of the loads I'll ever have to fart out into my toilet again. Thanks Mind Pulp ❤
R.I.P Egon (Harold ramis) gone but not forgotten 😢😭🫡
Egon but not forgotten
No too soon man too soon
WHO???
we will remember harold ramis better than the 2016 movie we have now
Who?
Idk if I'll be the only one to say this, but I genuinely think you (two) should make a part two.
I honestly love the commentary you both have of this game and I would really like to know what your thoughts are on the latter portions of the game.
Just a fun fact, the game was supposed to be the third movie but the script was to long that it would have had to been a two parter. But Harold Raymus and Dan Ankroyd didn't want that.
Ghostbusters is my favorite movie of all time. There are so many great elements in the movie the acting, the writing, special effects, and the comedy. It all came together to make the greatest movie of all time.
It's alright
just the 1
Sarcasm?
I'm in total agreement, everything came together and made it ahead of it's time. GB is my all time favorite movie, seen it over 200 times (no exaggeration)
I like afterlife and frozen empire, but this just has THAT ghostbusters vibe coming off of it.
the fact that the OG ghostbusters came out in 1984 is unbeliveable. and its still one of my favorit movies, that i also remember wcthing as a child back in the late 2000,s or early 2010,s.
I still find it funny that the hotel stayed open after all of that chaos from the ghosts. And then the only reason they actually close down is because of an electrical fire, that the manager mentions later in the game. xD
Also, it's funny if you catch Slimer without trashing the Bar Mitzvah (that badly), since the camera would pan across a pretty decent room while the manager complains that it's trashed.
One time as a younger lad, I made it my mission to trash that scene as little as possible. The pan to a very clean room while him complaining was hilarious.
I really liked this game and still do! I was a QA tester for this game and many more back in the X360, PS3, Wii era! 2 days before release I was still working overtime at night to verify all the major bugs fixes! The PS2 was the most difficult to code for the studio. 2 days before release the last boss still had a 15 min black loading screen. The "original" release version for xbox 360 could not be 100% completed if you were using hdmi! You can thank me and my desire to always do stuff differently for being able to do it on release day XD
Out of interest, what was the hdmi issue about? How did it stop you getting a certain achievement?
@@charlessalisbury9220I have to apologize, my first "resumé" wasnt clear enough.I'll try and explain it in further details...
It didnt just stop you from completing one achievement. You couldn't finish the normal single player campaign. You see, although HD had been very present at this point, it seems that nobody on the QA team or the studio had bothered to try and finish the game by HDMI. They all did through RCA and component.
About two weeks before this game was set to release I was offered some weekend overtime to take a look at the final product, give my opinion on it while seeing if I can find anything wrong with the game but hey it was already a "finished" product so I shouldn't. We normally get an assign desk throughout the normal week but on the weekend and overtime, it was first arrive first serve. I got in the secured room first that morning and when I scanned around this room I never had access before, one monitor caught my attention. A brand new FULL HD Viewsonic 24" TV/Monitor among 40 standard gray pc monitor. "Heck yeah this one mine, I'm finally going to play in real HD for a change and enjoy the game as customer would" I thought to myself. I even had to ask the project manager for an HDMI cable cause like i said, nobody bothered to do it cause we usually used PC monitor with either VGA/RCA or component and usually recorded any bug via a RCA PC video capture card.
I progressed normally through the games and when I get close to the end (I think the location is called central park cemetery or something like that) a mini-boss/big creature appeared in front of me and the game just freeze the frame and fatal crash there. Right away I'm surprise/confuse as this is suppose to be a finish product. I reboot and reload from last save and "bam" same thing happen. After doing it many times and confirming it's not an "isolate" or "one-time" crash, I decided to ask my co worker around if they were able to finish the game and I get confused look from everyone, especially people that had been testing this game for months.
Nobody in the room has a clue on whats going on and there all very confused and I start to think for a few mins and i suddenly get this very weird ideas in my head : What if it was the HDMI cable ? I had never seen/heard of a situation like that before (or since) but it was the only different "variable" that i could spot in this situation and I was right.
Maybe a true coder/programmer could explain what happenned but to this day I dont have a clue how which "video-out" you use on a console could make it fatally crash on a very specific spot.
And voilà haha. Sorry for the long post.
@DJMADD01 fascinating, thanks for the reply, appreciate it very much 👍
I had the PS2 version as a kid years before I was able to play the HD version, not that I knew there was a different version of the game at the time of course. I remember it would crash and freeze my PS2 all the time, clear signs that the game was indeed very troubled on that system. Loved it to death though. I consider both versions of the game to be some of my favorite ever now.
Congratulation!
You have saved the city and proved justice.
And go and rest our heroes.
Conglaturation!
You have played a a great game!
You have proved the justice of our culture!
Now go and rest our Mind Pulp!
This game should have gotten a remake instead of a remaster. Battle for Bikini Bottom and Destroy all Humans have shown you can use the old dialogue and people won’t care, we just want to play our favorite games with a fresh coat of paint
Loved this game back on the Wii. Even got the remake of the game on the Switch.
Wii version is peak. Motion controlled busting makes me feel good.
The Wii felt like you were actually ghostbustin'
@@LetterboxTuxedoyou should play the vr game when yiu get a chance, feels just like a ghostbuster
You can upgrade your weapons by opening the menu if you ever play this again, also this game spins off into a comic book series called chicago ghostbusters.
So glad to see you guys playing this! I'd say the one advantage of playing the PS2/Wii versions is that you get the option of choosing whether your character is male or female---weird that they didn't do that for the XBox version. I was also lucky enough to meet Ernie Hudson at Steel City Con years ago. He even wore his Ghostbusters uniform and had all sorts of stories to tell about the film industry. Really nice gentleman. :)
Probably because of the comics. Rookie becomes a proper character and runs another ghostbusters branch.
@@nighttime8435 Oh, really? I didn't know that! I'm gonna' have to track that down now. :)
You know I’m glad they played the XBOX ghostbusters it paid off greatly
Also, having a voiceless ghostbuster rookie is the opportunity to add your own lines to the character 😎
But I rolled a 2 for my charisma stat😟
@@glizzygulper6998 doesn’t matter, you’re still a ghostbuster 😎
Yeah it works pretty well in this game. He doesn’t speak because he’s nervous and every time he goes to talk he gets interrupted.
@@nighttime8435 well maybe the ghostbusters want him to observe more than speak 😁
I love that unlike a good majority of licensed movie tie-in video games, this one's actually canon. It's honestly well deserved too.
Fun fact. The ds version had a free play mode and you got to play as the main ghost busters crew. And drive around in the eco 1.
I really do recommend checking out all 3 versions of the game.
I remember the DS version, it was one of my first ever video games and I loved it. I still have it actually and played it again recently.
Honestly I thought my game was broken because it was so difficult to get past the very first ghost. I bought a second copy only to find out I just suck at that version😂
@nighttime8435 I had both the ps2 and the ds version. Realized very quickly it was the same story idea but very different setup and game play. Honestly, I thought the ds version was harder at first after playing the ps2 version but realized It needed more strategy to play.
The DS version introduced me to the concept of going insane as a kid. That game was fucking hard.
I’ve replayed this game too many times and I personally enjoy very much and I consider it the third movie before Afterliife and it was Harold Ramis last ghostbusters project 🥺🥺
His big line at the end of the game is genuinely one of the best Egon moments in the series:
"We eat gods for breakfast!"
Ikr chef’s kiss to that comeback
"Too much you think?" @@BucklingSwashes
The game is available on switch and there is a version on Wii that is more cartoony in design. Though it plays differently
Man I'm such a huge orgional Ghostbusters fan, and I absolutely loved this game when it first came out. Watching this makes want to play it again.
One of my favorite levels is the museum where you find civil war ghosts, and they fight each other as well as you
Literally one of the best games I have ever played. It was nonstop action and jokes and ghosts from start to finish. I loved it.
My brother plays this game religiously to this day. Suprised you guys covered this
this game is fun to just play through every now and then. not many games can get me to come back anymore
"Everything you need to know is displayed on the pack itself! Which is on your back. Which you can't see."
I WOULD REALLY LOVE YOU GUYS TO PLAY MORE OF THIS GAME! THIS HAS TO BE ONE OF MY FAVORITES!
Wow, I can't believe you started with the Doug Funnie version of the Ghostbusters theme tune. Also you can talk to the Vigo portrait for dialog :3
The guy at the hotel would rather just do nothing and hope that the ghost will go away on its own, risking the chance of it causing more damage to the bar mitzvah than to just let you in to capture it? Jeez, it sounds like this guy is just being unbelievably stubborn
I know it’s a bit clumsy, but I still like to believe that this game is still part of the ongoing canon
It's a game I love and possibly the only game I've bought and rebought not once, but four times (360, PS4, Wii, and PS2 for those curious).
Nah, that's the BEST Ghostbusters game
The funniest part is that in the few times Bill’s giving it actual energy it just sounds like Garfield 💀
“Think were stuck!? Think we’re stuck, Think we’re stuck, Think we’re stuck-“
I love that scene 😂😂
The moment we’ve been waiting for, Mind Pulp becoming Ghostbusters
honestly a hidden gem
i woudnt call this hidden or underrated, its pretty well known
@@mynameismattfirered9276 thanks for that. i didnt even know it was that well known
@@mynameismattfirered9276 cheers. i didnt realise it was
@sasukeuchiha8801 again?
@sasukeuchiha8801 agreed
My heart skips a beat every time I see a new mindpulp video! So thankful for these guys
Fun fact, bill Murray himself hates his role in ghostbusters in general
Yeah, but Bill Murray hates everything. Still my favorite actor though.
Actually looks surprisingly good. I do love building the hud into the environment and it looks like they did a pretty good job of that.
Yall should finish the game, I love this game.
Defintely need to make a part 2 for this one, genuniely was one of my favourite games as a kid
I love this game so much, please play the whole thing it’s so good
I knew the love for Ghostbusters was real when I heard "I didn't even get to speak to Vigo!" 😂
This game has been on my wishlist for years. Seeing how much fan service and Easter eggs there are I'll finally buy it. Thanks guys. Great video, as always.
You’ll definitely have a fun time! It’s a fantastic game.
Can’t wait til you meet the Ghostbusters favorite Peck.
Really glad this game is getting some attention, I've always thought it was really overlooked, even by the devs which is why the PC version on steam is just fuckin broken for some reason and doesn't save progress
This game, for me, was amazing and exactly what I’d want in a ghostbusters game. OG actors, story by them, fun level exploration and the really fun ‘combat’/gameplay mechanics. And their HUD was so good. Big open screen, and all the info naturally shown thru environment
Sick cover dudes!!
Full version when?
Yay! I fucking love this game, i let my coworker borrow my playstation 3 just to experience it. He saw ghostbusters as a kid and wasn’t a gamer during the PS3 era, and this was before the remaster came out, so he absolutely loved it. It’s so good
I play this every October.
I occasionally pop in the DS version when I'm in an Ecto-1 mood
I Love This Game
I played it on PS3, played it on Wii, and now i always play the remastered, i still play it whenever i feel like it
One of my favorite gaming memories, thanks for playing
the fact u can still get a total protonic reversal in the game is the chef’s kiss for the game.
My wife and I virtually just re-downloaded this game last night. Still so good... a little wonky in some respects but still so good.
I enjoyed this game so much I've bought it like...4 times? Originally got it on box 360, later ps3 after all my games got stolen, Ps4 remaster later on, and then on switch so had it portable....might be a tad obsessed 😅
Got this on day it released and have been telling people this is THE ghost busters game
Rookie is arguably kind of a great character.
In the comics, he basically tries to start a Ghostbusters branch is Chicago. But he can't train or hire anyone locally becaue of a bureaucrat So he just gets a bunch of Temp Hires from Minnesota.
Peter advised him to take a full trap to said bureaucrat's place and have an "Equipment Failure".
5:55
Apparently this ghost ate a Thanksgiving dinner ment for 5 _by himself._
I have a copy of this for the 360, but not the console. I put it in my xbox one just for the hell of it, and it worked. I love this game.
Love how this game is having a comeback now
My favorite thing you do is when you play songs for like 1 second or less as a joke
The devs only had Bill Murray for a day or two to get all his lines. The story behind making this game is just as crazy as the game.

Did you guys see those subtitles by Bill Murrey "don't touch the slime! It's slimy and dangerous" 😂
I remember when this came out and was the most talked about game and anticipated. Well done and the story is perfect.
Whoever thought to make this game a dead space clone should get a serious raise. This game went way too hard
I know you guys don't really do PS2 games that much, and I realize asking you to do another Ghostbusters game that's essentially just the more cartoony graphics of this is a bit silly, but it would be nice to see two of my favorite UA-camrs play the PS2 version of this. I have very vivid memories of playing it with my dad on the multiplayer mode on our Wii and it was the only time the two of us actually sat down together and bonded. That specific game holds a lot of good memories. Take care and thank you if you read this, and thank you for another amazing upload.
Will never tire of this game, played it a dozen times
This game is the definition of “busting makes me feel good!”
I have this for the 360, PSP and DS and every version is #1. Love hearing my favorite film score composed and conducted by Elmer Bernstein heard throughout the game.
Busting in Bill Murray, what?
I had the Wii version of this game. Completely different lol. Definitely worth a look if you want a weird experience.
This game is so fricking good
This was one of my favorite games back in college. It really felt like I was proton wrangling and trapping ghosts.
16:15 Those are all the burnt marshmallows from your lifetime seeking revenge for keeping in the fire too long 😁
I remember playing this when it first released.
There was huge hype for this game when the original cast members were announced to be the voice actors and the script writers.
I love this game. Like it's one of the few games I would actually play over and over again (single player)
I DEMAND A FULL LP OF THIS GAME BETWEEN YOU TWO
pretty sure those "guns" were just jackhammers cuz ya know they're construction ghosts
Nail guns
2:18 Odd Fact: the game is supposed to Take Place in 1991 and somehow the Twin Towers are no where to be seen even though this game came out after the events of 9/11
I talked to Jesse Sosa, one of the devs, about it. They were digitally removed from the picture because there hadn’t been enough time since 9/11. Jesse Sosa wanted to keep them, but it didn’t end up happening.
@@geggy310 Sad
@@healthybeautynutricioncoac4562 also, one of the security guards in the opening cutscene was modeled after him. In the museum party cutscene, his badge even says Sosa on it.
I just started getting into Ghostbusters and loving it. I found the remaster of this game collecting dust in my free Epic Games library. So cool
I loved this as a kid and finally beat it for the first time as a nostalgia trip. I love that its basically canon and considered the 3rd installment by Dan Akroyd
i must be a ghostbuster because busting to this video makes me feel good
this was my favorite game when i was younger this game is amazing
Respect to Harold Ramis we miss you.
I've seen that vodka around for so long and thought it was cool at first, never tried it but I didn't know he had anything to with it.
This game was one of my personal favorites
So glad y'all played my favorite 360 game. Got a copy when I got my console and I played it damn near as much as halo reach, which was the pack in title
fun fact: originally... the plot of this game should have been the actual Ghostbusters 3
YES! THE DAY I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR (I’m obsessed with the game and bought it on every console)
10:26 "Oh that chandelier was probably worth more than your entire salary"
$26 is his entire salary! UA-cam really ain't doing too well!
I was more hyped for this game than GTA IV.
How has it taken you this long to play this game, one of the best games ever!! The forgotten ghostbusters movie fr
This is a actually one of my favs
"BUSTIN MAKES ME FEEL GOOD" 💀
No way they actually said that
I have this on the switch, it plays great as an handheld
God of Manual Labour.
"BOY, did you fill in your time sheet for the week?"
One thing I loved about the cartoon version is that there was a trex skeleton boss, also I would love to see a pt2 of this
Funny thing, I recently replayed it and it still hasn't aged a day. I remember playing the original back when I was in 4th grade but could never get past the gargoyles lmao. I love that game to pieces and treat it as the Ghostbusters 3 of the franchise
