That's kinda the point. It's a trailer (short) and it's showing that they've captured the humor of the films(silly).

That was an awesome opening, loved seeing the credits and writing credits and loved when the music kicked in and camera pulling away showing the ghostbusters car, loved the opening with the TV ad playing. Great stuff

I didn't think the museum thing was funny.

Trailer has the same charm as the movies.

It's a heckuva lot like the opening of Ghostbusters. But yes, I wouldn't say funny -- charm would definitely be the better word. I think it just speaks to the fact that they're trying to give Ghostbusters fans exactly what they want.

So far, IMO, it's working... because I'm a big fan and I'm sold with every new trailer or video clip that comes out.

You pretty much summed it ALL up right there. The movie was a mix of comedy meets spooky. Like the Three Stooges Meet Wolfman. If the game follows that then this will possibly be the sleeper hit of the year.

Don't get me wrong, I am excited for the game, and will be getting it for sure.

Re: "Ghostbusters" game??? (or GoW mod?) [video]

I am looking forward to this too, as well as the insane nights of co-op with the usual suspects. I just hope there isn't friendly fire or Buzz will surely attempt to trap me in a containment unit.

One thing is for sure, Atari is doing a hell of a job with these tidbits of info. They are quickly making people forget this is a movie licensed game.

Re: "Ghostbusters" game??? (or GoW mod?) [video]

I can't believe this game is so close to coming out. I always wanted a third Ghostbusters and it looks like I am going to get my wish. Glad they were able to get everyone back and involved (minus Rick, but that isn't a huge deal). This could go down in history as the greatest movie videogame ever by the looks of it.

I don't know, it would have to step over a couple big titles to do that. Riddick and Goldeneye set the bar pretty high.

Very true. I think "best movie based game for the 360" would be a pretty great accomplishment.

Mother. Fucking. Sony.

This had better still come out for the other systems.

Re: "Ghostbusters" game??? (or GoW mod?) [video]

This and Batman were pushing me to finally get an XBOX, so for some of us this game did have some pretty decent pull (providing reviews were good).

After all of this time and effort has been put into the various releases, I can't see how they would not be released at some time, even if it's a little while after the PS3.

Er, wait a sec. Like a moron, I didn't actually read the original article, which says that this is for PAL territories. Sooo...this may not even affect the US.

Sony needs to do this more to compete with the box.

The opening uses the Columbia Pictures logo from the 1980s!



Plus hearing the original three was sweet.

Re: "Ghostbusters" game??? (or GoW mod?) [video]

Am I reading this right? Sony will now be publishing the Ghostbusters game, but only release it on PS2/PS3 next month??

http://www.gamesindustry.biz/article...ers-from-atari

Sony Computer Entertainment will now be publishing Terminal Reality's Ghostbusters title in a surprise deal signed with Atari today, just one month before the game was set to ship, GamesIndustry.biz has learned.

The game is set for a June 19 release alongside the Sony Pictures film, but only on the PlayStation 3 and PlayStation 2 platforms, which will have a period of exclusivity lasting several months until the PlayStation Portable edition is launched.

It is unclear exactly what will happen to the Xbox 360, DS and Wii versions of the game, although GamesIndustry.biz understands that Atari may look to publish them at a later date.

Its only Sony exclusive in PAL regions - America will still be the same day for 360/wii etc.

Anew movie of in game footage that really looks good. A short 11.1 mb file but it shows a bit more than previous ones. Enjoy

I got a really good feeling about this game. I'm so glad this is a summer release rather then a holiday, so it won't get lost in the crowd.

I hope this backfires on Sony with the 360 version looking better than the PS3 version.
I only say that because of them trying to shaft PAL regions out of being able to purchase a 360/Wii version anytime soon.

And I hope the PS3 version looks better than the 360 version
