Ghostbusters was claimed to be the best selling game of last year prob ably due to the superb rendition of Ghostbusters (the song) generated throughout the game on the CBM 64. and also becauso of the hit film The Amstrad version has many of the features of its CBM counterpart including the music. On first looking at this game it appears to be very good but everything goes downhill once you start to play. The idea is very simple an essontially follows the film idea A strate gical element requires you to equip your toam with vehicle and spook traps from a limited cash allowance Then it's a quostion of guiding your little spook hunters round Now York and capture the ghosts. There's a large map screen showing the streets, infestations and your position. a scrolling road scene, and several buildings where the spooks may be caught. How many ghosts you capture all depends on your skill and what equipment you bought at the outset For each ghost captured you receive a variable amount of cash. Should you have accumulated $10,000 or more by the time the PK level reaches 9999 and the Lock' and 'Keymaster' have united at The Temple of Zuul, then the scene cuts to the temple where all the trouble is centred Here you must guide at least 2 of your 3 ghostbusters past the prancing Marshmallow Man and into the Temple to finish the game Whether you are successful at getting the required amount of ghostbusters past the Marshmallow Man or not. you will be given an account number (only if you have made over $10,000) which can be used at a later date to buy more equipment The musk: is quite good but rapidly becomes annoying after you have heard it continuously for an hour or so. The graphics are reasonable but the scrolling of your car. when travelling between buildings, is absolutely awfull. The only real plus to the game is its instant playability and that makes it quite enjoyable for a while but there are no addictive qualities and it ends up being vory empty. Particularly reccommended to younger gamesters. AMTIX |

Page créée en 062 millisecondes et consultée 7426 fois L'Amstrad CPC est une machine 8 bits à base d'un Z80 à 4MHz. Le premier de la gamme fut le CPC 464 en 1984, équipé d'un lecteur de cassettes intégré il se plaçait en concurrent du Commodore C64 beaucoup plus compliqué à utiliser et plus cher. Ce fut un réel succès et sorti cette même années le CPC 664 équipé d'un lecteur de disquettes trois pouces intégré. Sa vie fut de courte durée puisqu'en 1985 il fut remplacé par le CPC 6128 qui était plus compact, plus soigné et surtout qui avait 128Ko de RAM au lieu de 64Ko. |
