Comments on: 'Ghostbusters' Plays About How It Looks http://toucharcade.com/2009/06/16/ghostbusters-plays-about-how-it-looks/ ... keeping in touch with the latest in iPhone gaming Fri, 10 Feb 2012 10:24:24 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.1.4 By: iHuff http://toucharcade.com/2009/06/16/ghostbusters-plays-about-how-it-looks/#comment-26076 iHuff Fri, 19 Jun 2009 09:59:29 +0000 http://toucharcade.com/?p=10568#comment-26076 Not sure what everyone was expecting - Sony has other interests - i.e. their own mobile console. They don't want people to spend too much time on this machine when they've got home-grown hardware to peddle. Hoping for a good game from Sony is about as likely as Nintendo bringing out a whole new Mario/ Zelda/ StarFox/ Donkey Kong game written just for iDevices (which I see plenty of others are bizarrely hoping for over on the 'Golden Axe' review page!) Would love it, but it's never gonna happen. Not sure what everyone was expecting - Sony has other interests - i.e. their own mobile console.

Worth $4.99? Probably not, but I am having fun playing it. I don't usually go for platformer type games, so it's been a diversion from my regular iPhone gaming. If only they ported the old C64 Activision game... I won't be surprised at all when it drops to $0.99 ;-) I bought it yesterday because I'm a diehard GB fan. Worth $4.99?

My faith in Touch Arcade front page reviews has been restored. How could this game get it so wrong?? Another example of Sony not understanding the market. Yeah that's more like it.

They were known as Sony Imagesoft, and also know as one of the worst publishers for games back then. They made Acclaim look like Nintendo. .. I wonder how this would have turned out had it been a PSP? Reminds of of the pre-PlayStation days, when Sony was releasing games for the 16 bit consoles.
