OK, now I like this games, has driving parts before each new location, it is a side scroll platform shooter, like that wasn't enough. Does have a password system which like me I cheat and go to that last level 'cause I can. And you can switch between the two characters. Not alot of replay but I do get an urge to blaster ghosts laying in bed in the dark time to time. Besides their aren't many GBExtreme games out there. So you gotta like Ghostbusters, I've got this one, the sega genesis one and the newer one on X360 and that's all I need till Bill Murray gets around to reading the script for Ghostbusters 3. O.o

This review is from: Extreme Ghostbusters GBA Game NEW (Video Game)
I am very disappointed with this game. It may have very nice and cartoony graphics but the gameplay is terrible. You play Eduardo and Kylie from the TV series and must defeat an evil Count called Mercharior who has kidnapped other members of the Ghostbusters.
There are only four levels: the old building, the graveyard, the theatre and the botanical gardens. Before making your way through these bland platforming stages you must race to the destination on time in a top-racing stage where you control Ecto-1. Both are dull and could have been taken a lot further. It seems like such a rushed and unfinished product.
The music is boring, the ghosts are generic and the level design is annoying. You never really get the real sense of busting ghosts since you just shoot them with the Ion ray and they vanish. There's no holding or trapping and it just turns the game into a platforming shooter. And why is there no save system? This password crap is a joke. The GBA does have a save function you know!
If you're a total Ghostbusters fan then pick this up cheap. Otherwise leave it be, it stands out neither as a Ghostbusters product nor as a semi-decent game.
