I got the game for the 360 on my birthday last Wednesday, and beat it last night on the medium setting for the first run through. I didn’t bother with all the achievements the first time through but i ended with 23 of them(can’t do the xbox live ones dont have the internet at home). Anyways I think I spent about 10 hours on it, and thought seriously this is it last night. I will go through again on the hard mode and see about doing everything I can single player. Any one else think that the game was too easy?
I wouldn’t say it was too easy, it was just too short in terms of playtime. I have been playing it for 3 weeks and just go on to have a quick blast now, having done the story 5 times over.
i agree it was way too short, but i think there should have been… i don’t know something else.
The run time is very average and especially for a movie tie in game.
I’m not sure why people keep saying its short, sure it be nice for more but its right on par.
You aren’t playing 30 hour Legend of Zelda game
And neither are you playing a 4 hour Terminator Salvation. Now THAT was BS!
back in the day when Zelda came out for nes, i got a copy that had a malfunction in the battery save, found that out from day one to day 2, day 2 it was beaten. I’m just asking for some more puzzles or something that might make my brain work, and emptying the slime lake really doesn’t count. Of course the guys have the tools and the talent but should they have that many tools at their disposal so easily?
I still find myself playing it as well. My brother’s like “You’re still playing it?” giving me a hard time. I dunno, it’s fun playing it and busting and reliving it. All the character interactions make the game, the attention to detail makes me keep coming back and just the fun of busting. :whatever:
I didn’t expect a 30 hour game but I sure expected to be playing it past 7 hrs worth of game. THe online is good fun and I enjoy casually revisiting the game but as an experience it was way too short sadly. Just look at similar games like COD: MW and Gears of War 2 which have a few more hours of gameplay.
I do enjoy long games like MGS4 and especially Oblivion which is my all time favourite and can’t wait for the sequel.
Nothing beats 1 1/2 hour Rebel Assult. I still haven’t beaten the game. I’ve just now gotten to Central Park after buying it at Midnight on release day. I’m just not rushing through it. I missed alot of stuff like gags and items so I will play through it again.
I believe one of the goals of the game was for average people to comfortable playing it.
I will definitely play through it again. If I just wanted to beat it I would have rented it for the weekend.
Same here…My little sis [to who lives with me with her husband and two kids], and my friend Greg give me crap for still playing it this long after it’s release :sigh: …Though during breaks from the game I’ve found myself playing Infamous…
That’s about what I do now…Having played through the game a ton of times, I mostly run through the game in spurts, or at the very least a mission or two to get my kicks ;-)…That and the experience becomes slightly different when I change the camera angles to better frame the guys whilst during the dialogue scenes…Makes it more like a movie experience that way…Well that and playing it back-to-back with the PS2 version to get the full effect 
…
Cheers.
I mean, to be fair…if there is any game we’d play over and over…it’s this.
I, for one, am no good at most video games. This is the first game I’ve played to completion (other then Lego Star Wars, which you literally can’t loose.) in I don’t know how long. As a GB fan playing a video game (as opposed to a gamer playing a GB game, if you get my meaning) I’m glad their ‘easy’ setting was actually easy. On most other games, for me anyway, easy just means ‘slightly less impossible - you’ll get maybe one level further before quitting in frustration’. With the Ghostbusters game, I was able to do exactly what they said: experience the story and bust a few ghost.
Still hate those damn stone angels, though. lol
well i’m glad that a non gamer could enjoy the game. I skipped the easiest level, and was expecting something more difficult, and longer. As for the stone angels, that part was not difficult at all, just run and gun or uh slime tether.
For the die hard gamers (Professional completion 3.5 hrs) this game was on the easy side, a little short, but its a spin off of a movie script. The game is an enjoyable story. I don’t think it was meant to be more than a couple hours of entertainment becuase it is set up like a movie. I thought it was great. The fact that it was not impossbile to beat easily only brought out how enjoyable it truely was. It sucked you in like you were actually a ghostbuster. It has been a long tim since I have felt that way about a game. This is definately one of my favorite games ever. The gameplay was so unique. It was a definately an experience. I would suggest that you get internet at the hosue and get in on some multiplayer, expands the busting experience and way mroe challanging than the singleplayer game.
i would love to get net access at the house but i’m afraid that it’s gonna be a while. if the game was only meant to be a few hours of entertainment then why in the world should it be $60, out of the gate. Shouldn’t it be cheaper since it is more meant like a movie and not a game.
…Were you expecting a movie licensed game based on a dying franchise to be good? 
I thought it was a bit short too, but still love playing it.
I like the fact that it makes you feel like your a new hire and the way that ray trains you and explains things
it’s awesome. I know I’m going to play the hell out of this game.
I still love playing this game, I guess I just expected more.
