Also, there is definitely a 'fan service' element, as there is with many established franchises ... it is a way of saying something is average or mediocre objectively but if you have a vested interest you might be able to let it slide. Nice to see you are digging Plants vs. Zombies ... Folks who have heard of Ghostbusters but never seen it might be intrigued but not fans.

But yeah, a few flaws, but this is an innovative game. Totally different than a shooter, yet the same. I'll have to write more about it. I do love how some websites are saying things like: "People who aren't fans of Ghostbusters . . . " Why? Why would you assume a non-fan would buy it OR even read the review?
