Could a turn based Ghostbusters game work?

Over the past week I've been getting back into playing various turn based fighting games such as Paper Mario and Pokemon and I started thinking, what would a turn based Ghostbusters game be like?

I think it could work well. I can imagine the game being a series of battles against ghosts which get tougher and tougher. The object of course is to take away all of their energy and to suck them into your trap.

The battles are intelligent and fun. You must use the things you have at your disposal sensibly while having impecible timing to dodge attacks and shoot and the correct time.

While in battles you select different things like your length of proton stream, equipment, change your character, use up to four characters at the same time, duck and dodge attacks, recharge your proton pack when necessary etc etc

Would anyone else be interesting in playing such a game?

Be more interested in someone reviving the Pen and Paper RP…but it could be interesting. It would just depend on how it was done. For the longest time I said that Mega Man wouldn't make a good turn based RP game (despite contradictory wanting one and wishing they'd make one)…and Command Mission proved me wrong.

It COULD possibly work, but you'd need to try and keep it from becoming monotonous. You'd need to make the turn-based combat fun. It's a battle alot of rpgs have to overcome. Some succeed, some don't.
