What To Watch Tonight – Tuesday, October 23, 2018

What To Watch Tonight? Tuesday are the single best night of the week for TV. Across the board, you are at a minimum of three deep each hour of excellent dramas. A little less so tonight because the World Series begins and that knocks out any Fox programming, like The Gifted, normally a popular pick at PCR. At 8p, our Top Pick is The Flash (tonight has the return of Wells!). At 9, Black Lightning is our go to but we’ll be watching FBI also (check soon for our recaps).  At 10pm, our heart belongs to New Amsterdam but we like The Rookie too (recaps comings).

Video Game Review: Ghostbusters World AR Mobile Game

Ghostbusters World
Game Review
October 22, 2018

From Sony Pictures Consumer Products, Ghost Corps, publisher FourThirtyThree Inc. (4:33), and developer Next Age, Gostbusters World is a new mobile AR game, available for free download on iOS and Android. Available on October 22, 2018, Ghostbusters World lets YOU strap on a proton pack and be a Ghostbuster! Using cutting edge AR mapping and GPS location technology, Ghostbusters World lets you battle and trap iconic ghosts from the Ghostbusters franchise. The game has several different game play options which also includes an easy to use RPG-style, turn based battle system. In PVP mode, you can pit your ghosts against other real world ghostbusters. Who has the best ghosts? Who is best at busting? Settle it here, in Ghostbusters World!

For those that don’t know, “AR” means augmented reality. Still lost? An Augmented Reality game is one that places the video and audio of the game in the player’s real world environment. Using GPS location technology and your smartphone’s camera function, the player experiences a game where the objects in the game are placed into the real world on a map that is your real world location. The best known example of AR mobile gaming, before Ghostbusters World, is Pokemon GO, the smash hit from Niantic.

So strap on your Proton Pack, jump in Ecto-1 and let’s go bust some ghosts! …
