November 14, 2007 - Today Game Informer unveiled its next cover story: a Ghostbusters game is currently in development and Harold Ramis, Bill Murray, and Dan Aykroyd are all on board. The trio will be reprising their roles in what will serve as Ghostbusters 3, only in videogame form.
Akroyd and Ramis are writing the script and Game Informer says this won't be a quick-and-easy licensed cash-in. This game apparently has nothing to do with the Ghostbusters game Zootfly was working on, of which demo videos appeared on YouTube earlier this year.

This REALLY should be on the Wii, ya know...

well good
how awesome would it be to capture ghosts with the wiimote?
Yeah, I think it was mentioned that a Wii version is being made.

it is. the title's just misleading.
"Also Available On: Wii, PC, PlayStation 2, Xbox 360, Nintendo DS"
Depending on how tight and how much they maximize the graphical capabilities on the Wii version, this title may coerce me into grabbing a PS3 or a 360...
Honestly what I think they should do is do an exclusive Wii version which takes advantage of cell shaders and just model everything to look like the old "The Real Ghosbusters" cartoon...
I made a thread about this a while back on ye olde chat.
Oh I nearly forgot, FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THAT IS HOLY DON'T CROSS THE STREAMS!
This game = release day buy...already >.<
It's true, the game will be released on all major platforms but the Wii/PS2 version will be significantly different from the 360/PS3 version.
The 360/PS3 version is being made by Terminal Reality with the Infernal Engine (their in house engine). It takes place in 1991, two years after Ghostbusters II, and offers a completely new story by Remis and Ackroyd. You'll start the game with some familiar faces like Slimer, the librarian, and the most fun of all, Stay Puft in the early levels but the game is a new story and is taking the place of the third movie.
I won't go into too much on the gameplay at the moment (can save that for later) but I can say that the Infernal Engine is awesome and it runs like a charm on the PS3 and 360. It was originally made for the PS2 so converting it to the PS3 was a breeze and now making games run great is just as easy. The engine can handle literally thousands of physics objects and usually about 1000 objects with full lighting, AI, effects, and everything else. Also, since I saw a few claims that the
Stay Puft screen was prerendered but everything you see in the Game Informer article is in fact in game.
The guys at Terminal Reality are pretty excited over this game (some of us are still geeking out over this) and are pretty passionate so expect to see a lot of great stuff in the coming months. ^^
I wish I could give more info on the Wii version (since this is a Wii site) but I don't know a lot about other than what's in Game Informer since I'm not involved with Red Fly. I have seen it in action and from what I saw it was pretty cool and the controls were fun. I definitely wouldn't rule it out as another PS2 port.
The 3rd movie the Ghostbusters go to Hell so it is definitely going to make to be a bad ass game!

Thus far, the Ghostbusters game will only be on PS3, Xbox360, and PC. If you can find information stating others then that's cool, but let's not get people's hopes up with no real proof of it being on other systems.

its in the ign link you posted.
its in the ign link you posted.
actually no it's not. maybe in future they will announce it for the other systems, but for now it's PS3, 360, and PC.
jfc. you've got to be the biggest ps3 fanboy ive ever met... who doesnt even own the console.

Say what you want to say, but I do my very best to be honest with everyone on here. I won't be involved in a pissing match because I don't need to be. Everyone here knows that I do my very best.
Oh and by the way, if you think that claiming a game is on the PS3, 360, and PC makes me a fanboy against the Wii (which I own) and the PS2 (which I own) then I think it's quite clear that your working hard to try and burn me and making yourself look stupid.

as i recall gft77 has access to a ps3, wii, and a ps2...so i really cant see how hes a fanboy...he might have made a mistake but its no big deal and its really not a good reason to start bashing on the dude...

Look at the bottom of this page: http://www.ghostbustersgame.com/
The 360/PS3/PC version is being made by Terminal Reality. The Wii/PS2 version is being made by Red Fly.
Wait...Isn't Red Fly the same company that is making that stupid Mushroom Men game for Wii?
That worrys me a little. Oh well if it sucks on Wii I will just buy it on 360 if I have to.
i know this is for PS3 but its also comming out for the wii from what i understand.
i am SUPER hyped about this since im a huge ghostbusters fan! also, one of my best friends is a "real ghostbuster" no im not lying. he and his 2 friends made proton packs, their own ecto 1 and have the costumes and everything. they did everything themselves and are a huge hit at parties no joke!
anyways, i cant friggen wait for this to come out! im so excited!
