I've always been a big fan of Johnny Blaze and the Ghost Rider. The 90's version of the Marvel comic book is still a great read today (and hopefully the movie will borrow heavily from it). As a major motion-picture heading our way from Sony Pictures next year, its always been a good bet that the Ghost Rider would be delivering justice on the mighty PSP too. Now it's official and we have some details:"Reflecting the stylized action of the Marvel comic series and Sony Pictures' upcoming film, Ghost Rider offers a unique combination of high impact combat and motorcycle action."
Among the game's key selling points are:
- Vengeful Combat – Fast paced, combo based combat against multiple enemies using Ghost Rider's trademark hellfire chain and hellfire shotgun.
- Adrenaline Fuelled Motorbike Action – Ride the terrifying Hell Cycle, swing your chain at enemies and use the bike's powers: ride on water, boost over jumps, power down under obstacles, etc.
- Upgrade and Improve –Add upgrades to the Hell Cycle and Hellfire Chain, plus new moves and stat increases using the essence of defeated foes as currency.
- Penance Stare – Besides possessing superhuman strength, speed and durability, Ghost Rider can force criminals to experience a level of emotional pain equivalent to that which they have caused in others.
