Mass Panic
-Objective: Chase Stay Puft while escorting Ecto-1 through Manhattan's ruined streets. Discover why Stay Puft has re-manifested. Eliminate any paranormal entities you encounter.
GHOST SCANS: The first two ghosts you will encounter are the Marshmallow Minis and the Hobo Ghosts. They will be seen in many areas of this level, but go ahead and scan them into the Spirit Guide now.
Ghosts & Gargoyles
-Objective: The Muon trap, a.k.a. "Super Slammer" can be used to instantly capture dazed ghosts. Just drag them near the Ecto-1 trap beam and poof! A dazed ghost is trapped!
GHOST SCANS: Scan a Stone Gargoyle, then snatch it immediately with the Capture Stream and slam it to the ground. No need to trap them or shoot them until their power bars have disappeared. Along with the gargoyles, you will be attacked for the first time by Construction Worker Ghosts. They will appear periodically throughout the level, but you might as well scan him now.
Spin Cycle
-Objective: Ecto-1's path is blocked! Go with Winston through the nearby laundromat and find a way to clear the alley. Remember, with a Proton Pack strapped to your back, brute force is always an option!
Pay attention in the laundromat. There is a hidden artifact in the storage room, as well as a water fountain for the Ghostbusters Drinking Game achievement/trophy. In the alley, keep an eye out for a dead end passage that leads to a small bar where music can be heard. Down the steps is another hidden artifact, Patrelli's Mischievous Cone.
Hindenburg: The Musical
-Objective: It's almost as if all these street hauntings are intended to slow you down. Capture these new ghosts as quickly as possible so you don't lose Stay Puft!
GHOST SCANS: Be ready to equip the PKE Meter here. The puddle of Black Slime needs to be scanned, as well as the Opera Diva Ghost. The Hobo Ghost and Stone Gargoyle also return in this section, so if you missed them before, get them all now!
Shadow of the Stay Puft
-Objective: Stay Puft is definitely looking for something. Follow him and find out what it is.
GHOST SCAN: This the earliest point at which Stay Puft can be scanned for the database. He can also be scanned before he is knocked off the roof later on.
Marshmallow Minis
-Objective: Follow Ray across Times Square. Stay Puft seems to have made it a throwing gallery so be careful! A squashed Ghostbuster is an ineffective Ghostbuster.
Once off the streets and into the lobby of the building, scan the red telephone on the reception desk. This is Asmodeus' Hotline, a hidden artifact.
Race to the Roof
-Objective: Stay Puft is definitely interested in something located in this building's highest floors. Explore the area and find it before that giant marshmallow man does!
Get another sip of water from the fountain in the hallway before entering the next room. Once inside, defeat the Marshmallow Minis with Ray, then scan the model building in the corner by the windows. This is another hidden artifact, Hohman's Black Low-Rise. Before opening the next door, destroy everything in the room (or as much as you possibly can). An achievement/trophy, I Love You When You Rough-House, will then unlock when you open the next door.
