Ultimate Ghosts and Goblins

Capcom's classic Ghosts and Goblins series gets updated and upgraded for a new life on the PSP with the new Ultimate Ghosts and Goblins. Old school gamers still get the original flavor of the game with its side-scrolling action, but with the cool 3-D characters and environments, it looks like an all-new game.

The game's hero, Sir Arthur, returns looking better than ever, and gets a huge upgrade in the moves department that allows him a much wider range of action and fighting abilities. An expanded level design takes advantage of Sir Arthur's new abilities. He is able to double jump, hang onto ledges, shoot in a variety of directions, and make quick dashes to escape danger. New to this version is that the further along Sir Arthur progresses, the more his skills, attacks, and magical abilities improve and become more powerful. Ultimate Ghosts and Goblins is more gamer friendly with the addition of extra lives for Sir Arthur, and the elimination of check points in the game. For gamers, that means if Sir Arthur dies, gamers re-start at the exact point they died, and no more re-doing the whole level several times until the enemy is defeated.

Sir Arthur must conquer five "main stages," each with bosses to battle, hidden pathways and nice side missions to round out the gameplay. Gamers not familiar with the series can get in on the action with the Novice level for exciting and challenging adventures. Experienced gamers or fans of Ghosts and Goblins can choose either Standard or Ultimate for Sir Arthur's greatest challenge to date.
