This co-op shooter, set in the neon-lit streets of New York, lets you and three friends bust ghosts with proton packs, traps, and a variety of gadgets. The reliance on teamwork during chaotic encounters, where you're juggling crowd control and containment, is the core of the experience. Though the story is forgettable, the satisfaction of wrangling a spectral beast alongside your friends and the faithful recreation of the Ghostbusters universe is what keeps players invested.
