Great game for the price February 23, 2008

This games is definately alot of fun and reminds me of the days of duck hunt and the light gun. Even though not a true light gun you can adjust your aim so that you can "eye up" your shot. This game is much better with a gun peripheral. There are only three levels but each time you beat them more options are opened up so that you can take different paths each time you play. This adds to the replay value. In all this game is worth the price and very addicting. I find myself playing over and over to try and unlock more guns and stages to the levels. The multiplayer is alot of fun too and up to 4 people can blast away at terrorists. So get some friends together and shoot 'em up!
 Fun for about an hour February 15, 2008

I was really excited to relive my Arcade Shooter days with Ghost Squad but it just didn't quite deliver. Overall it's a fun title and if you can get it for $20 or less then it's a must have but you'll probably have just as much fun renting it. After about the first hour of playing it starting getting "same old same old" status and it's a VERY short game, we killed it in an afternoon. The controller calibration is kinda flawed in my opinion as well. It really forces you to stand back father thatn you may want to, or have the room to. I also found my arm getting tired quicker than while playing other Wii games. However using the Wii Zapper this game really shines well, being able to steady your "gun" with two hands not only makes it easier to play but also adds that "Arcade realism" feel to the game. The levels are kinda blah and the graphics aren't anything you didn't see 5 years ago in the arcade BUT it's still fun, even if for only an afternoon or so.
Ghost Squad review February 14, 2008
1 out of 3 found this review helpful
Well.... Ghost Squad! is a arcade game were "you" play a character who has to show the bad, guys who's boss. you take control with your wiimote as your weapon! use the wiimote. to fire and shoot and take aim firing at your foes. the cool thing is. with the wifi you can see other peoples scores! so it's all ways updated! if you have the Wii zapper or the Wiigun it makes the game funner. plus sniping is good. th only thing is the voice acting is terrible and when people talk it's a few seconds off. but.... it's very fun! I enjoy it it's funner with more then one person! I think you should give this game a try I know. the graphics aren't that good either. but the game play is solid! very addicting. you wont stop playing this! and unlocking weapons and camo is EVEN MORE FUN!
 it's just as fun as Virtua Cop ever was! January 21, 2008

this game is just as fun, if not more, than the Virtua Cop series. i would recommend this to any Virtua Cop fan. not quite as fun as Time Crisis, but good enough for me.
Sweet Arcade Light Gun Shooter January 17, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I'll start this review with a little background of myself so you know where I am coming from. I'm a typical 26 year old gamer that enjoys all genres of video games from old school up to 'next-gen'. I have always enjoyed light gun arcade games so I was eager to get Ghost Squad. It supports 4 players at once which I love since me and my brother can both dual wield guns at the same time. It also has a nice shot calibration system that allows you to calibrate how the wiimote aims relative to the screen. This means that you can basically make it like a traditional light gun game, where you point is where it shoots.
The gameplay is fast and furious like most shooters. There are 3 missions that have many variations of each level. This means you are technically playing the same 3 missions but the enemy layout and difficulty varies greatly. Also they add in these little side missions throught the levels that you can choose from which really adds to the depth. Finally the game ranks you after beating the missions and allows you to post your high score in an online leaderboard. This works well in motivating you to beat the game on harder levels using harder guns and no aiming recticle. You also get new guns and new costumes for you character which helps add to the depth.
Strengths:
+ 4 players at once is sweet OR 2 players dual wielding!!!
+ Very tight controls, the IR cursor works great and can be calibrated to any senstivity or accuracy you like in the game.
+ Solid light-gun gameplay that has changing levels and fun side missions.
+ Unlockable guns and costumes change things up and increase difficulty
+ Online leaderboards keep you motivated to beat your high score
Weaknesses:
- The 3 missions are not very long but the variety helps.
- The graphics are not amazing but they do the job
Overall:
I highly recommend this game to any light-gun fans. I strongly suggest the game for anyone who wants to try out a light gun game without dropping a bunch of quarters at the arcade. Its a fun romp especially with friends... Can't go wrong with a shotgun in one hand and a machine gun in the other ;-}
