https://www.moddb.com/games/doom-ii/addons/ghostbusters-doom-playable-version ...Cause I ain't afraid of no Ghost. Happy Halloween viewers, and subscribers, and welcome to the finale episode of this special which is one that made the biggest impression on me well back in Season #5 when I was working with the red HP laptop I don't have anymore. I've watched Ghostbusters every Halloween night and (also on rainy nights) because it's a perfect blend of 80's horror and comedy that only Ernie Hudson, Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd, and Harold Ramis could perfect as parapsychologists battling a ghost infestation in New York City.

This curious mod is by Scuba Steve (Stephen Browning) who left it in a unfinished state in November 2002, So I've included both that version and a imprvoed 2014 release by LordWalderFrey for your pleasure, The mod has 18 maps to it's name with Map01 to Map11 being from Ghostbusters while Maps12 to Map31 are from Ghostbusters II. We control Bill Murrays Character as we first confront ghosts at the New York Public Library.

Once that is over, we're going through maps that are directly inspired by memorable parts of the movie with the Ghostbusters HQ, The streets of New York City and the famous Stay-puff Marshmellow Man battle to the face off with Gozer, though as this is a unfinished mod you'll have to use the map cheats to reach Map03 and above as the suicide exit to reach it is impossible to pull off, and this does weigh on the mod's rating.

Ammo is an issue as the enemies soak a lot of damage even on the skill of Hey Not Too Rough as that PK Meter which is our pistol does little to no damage even against lowly ghosts, later weapons have odd choices of ammo or function, but they work, though the "plasma gun" and "shotgun" replacements ammo is far too scarce, Enemy lineup all takes from the movie from Slimer to the Bug Eye ghosts that belch rockets. It's held together with duct tape, elmer's glue and armorall but this a fresh mod that I find well faithful to the movie even if its not finished.

[[Confession time, this was originally going to be a Doom Wads/Mods Holiday Special and This special was to only be 31 episodes long, but I decided to do this on Halloween night to keep with the theme, and let's face it, Ghostbusters is such a name in the American pop culture that it would fit well for the finale to this special.

And along this special I've been thinking seriously of doing another revisit special someday. While this mod may be unfinished and somewhat rough, I can't help but appreciate the effort that Scuba Steve did when he worked on it and kept what was left after he stopped production for us to enjoy. I hope everyone enjoyed this special, be ready for Doom Wads/Mods Season #12, It starts tomorrow!]]
