Bytejacker - Ghostbusters: Sanctum of Slime Review

[BlueMaxx86]

God damn this game. Tried lone hero and my stupid AI kept getting themselves killed. I'm stuck on level 3 (sewer) against the room with all three colors and the big yellow ghost in the center. He keeps whooping our asses. It's not difficult, it's unreasonable. There's no way to beat this shit.

[ultraveburas]

please send me a list of all the xbla titles to avoid, it would be a nice list to have :)

[jetflock]

this wasn't a bad game...its just like the old arcade one. the review is a bit biased.

[bytejacker]

@jetflock Biased? As in I have some long-standing prejudice against Ghostbusters in some way? I'll admit to one bias: I am strongly against lazy, license-based shovelware.

[jetflock]

@bytejacker

only because it is what it is. a cheap game thats simple like the arcade game. i like to play it when i'm bored. alot of reviewers tend to only like mainstream games with bells and whistles and 1000 people working on it. granted its got problems like the cutscenes being long, and the characters are a bit lame, otherwise its neat. I downloaded it because it reminded me of the old arcade game, which i still like better than the fancy new one that came out. no hard feelings meant.

@bytejacker ghostbusters are not lazy they work there ass's off

[Draknfyre]

@jetflock

No, the old game was good. This one fucking sucks.

It's buggy, stuff is repeated, the difficulty can be ridiculous, the gameplay sucks. It's literally mirrored to make it twice as long, and the "cutscenes" are long, and hard to read.

They also got the Proton Pack sound wrong. They have the assets from the first game, they reuse a ton of it, but they couldn't use the correct sound for the Proton Pack.

And if you have the pc version, they removed the online multiplayer.

NARWALL!!!!



[SpaceCowboyMcCoy]

SO MUCH MOVING AROUND

[Lazy0Waffle]

10 minutes? I think we'll actually end up with a lot more content with the episodes split up like this.

[GigaBoost]

Woah wait a minute did that Audible commercial just replace Anthony screaming FREE INDIE RAPIDFIRE?

This is an outrage!

[GigaBoost]

I have no idea what's going on what with the studio and such, I much preferred the older episodes any way so I don't really mind going back to that formula a bit or whatever is going on...

On another note, the review in this episode is probably my favourite Bytejacker review yet. I love a bit of cynicism instead of the regular happy-go-lucky feel of Bytejacker reviews.

[bertomartin]

DID YOU EAT THAT NARWHAL AT THE BEGINNING?! :o

[TheLuciusLaw]

Finally leaving the ugly studio! (although its hard not to love a narwhale made of bacon)

By the way... Tara Sooo won the card match. I mean come on... She argued her point so well. Even though I thought you were right about punchout, its all about the presentation of your argument. Next time I'd like to see you dance around her with charlie sheen wordsmithery.

[bytejacker]

@TheLuciusLaw I'd still like to have a studio space for things like guest interviews and the weeks where we've got awful weather here (it rains a lot), but it'd be nice to have our own set instead of borrowing one from other shows. Something that matched the Bytejacker vibe, you know?

[TheMegagamer530]

will you start doing the videos on the roof like you did with jon a long time back

[bytejacker]

@TheMegagamer530 Can't promise that - Jon and I were always lucky enough to live in places with roof access. If you look at last week's videos, though, you can see we're definitely going to be out and about.

[Irockman1]

No more studio? YEAH.

I always pictured you wearing a business suit every time I saw you in that studio. I don't like business suits one bit.

[bytejacker]

@Irockman1 Bad news: in order to get permission to leave the studio, I had to agree to always be in a business suit.

[Irockman1]

@bytejacker Damn it! There's always a catch to everything.

[ROMhaxfan57]

i want the roof now

[TrueSoreThumb]

Don't worry, Tony. The studio only looks good because YOU'RE in it. And if you're elsewhere, I'm still happy. :D

4:40 I'm still confused. Why is there no stamp custom-made for terrible games? I know there's a "Try it" and a "Buy it".. no "Avoid!!" ?

Also: WOO, still! Three videos!

And woo! JON :O

[cymonsgames]

@TrueSoreThumb Who the heck is "Tony"?

[TrueSoreThumb]

@cymonsgames Is this some subtle hint that Anthony is too polite to say he doesn't like that nickname?

[KIDcanFLY]

WHY ARE YOU IN A STUDIO NOW?? it was sooo cool when you were chilling on the roof.. :'(((

[bytejacker]

@KIDcanFLY Blink back those tears, little buddy - this point of this whole episode is that we're NOT going to be in the studio anymore.

[iani103]

I am LISTENING to something. Someone's BOOK on how to make something more something...

That... Thats just wrong :O

[DanielBoa]

I don't understand why Bytejacker don't average more views :/

[bytejacker]

@DanielBoa My mom agrees with you.

[B6ka]

I played all three of the game and the final countdown results are really strange because the second person shooter is so awesome and it got only third place. Did people even play it? The concept is so original and the gameplay is so fun (a bit challenging though). Did you play it Anthony, which one was you favorite?

[bytejacker]

@B6ka I liked Cardboard Box Assembler most - but I will say that I, too, dug Interlocked more than SPSZ. I thought Zato had a cool concept and was really interesting, but Interlocked held my interest more. Though just like everyone else, I couldn't quite say why.

[charleyhat]

why are they leaving the studio?

[Metalpaladin]

Is so hard to make the show in the roof again? Hey! Good to see Jon alive! Greetings from Peru Anthony!

[bytejacker]

@Metalpaladin Yes, it actually is. But we're going to try.

[ErmacSRB]

its on steam too

[misterx008]

yeah! more Bytejacker!! So awesome!

Hope you talk a lot! :)

[ZetaPlays]

I liked that one time in the studio where you were in front of the camera and talking about video games, I'll never forget that.

We'll miss you, studio. We'll miss you about as much as we miss that one guy on the roof that one day.

[bytejacker]

@ZetaPlays Yeah, those were good times.

[gundorlt]

So... From one video a week to a video every other week to three videos a weeek... Better then ever :) I wonder if there's a chance to bring back sketches. Ah, just thinking of Anthony getting in all kinds of weird situations makes me smile. You could pull it off, right? :)

[darkinertia2]

and fuck the studio! get back on the GD roof where you belong!

[vinWo316]

lol sucks!

[darkinertia2]

why do people think its cool to put "first" as the first comment?

[RedCelebi]

First =P sorry had to do it, also awesome vids Anthony!

[myshoescramp]

@RedCelebi You lose, sorry.

[MisterBeaverSaysNo]

The game pretty mutch sucks :c
