GHOSTBUSTERS GAME COMING JUNE 2009
Other good news out of the Atari event today: the Ghostbusters game, which Atari picked up after the Vivendi/Activision merger saw a number of games shed from their release list, was given a June 2009 release date on all its platforms: PS3, PS2, 360, PC, Wii and DS, CVG reported.
Though not much has been seen of the game, anticipation still runs high with Harold Ramis and Dan Aykroyd firmly behind the project, penning the script and reuniting the original cast. There’s something of some homespun pride here as well: Austin locals Red Fly Studios (the developer behind the just-released Primus-enhanced Wii title Mushroom Men) are at work on the PlayStation 2, Wii, and DS versions while North Texas’s Terminal Reality (Spyhunter, Bloodrayne) handle the PC, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 ports, and Austin’s GL33K is handling audio, bringing in the original cast members to lay down their lines.
With the push for a 2009 release, the game will coincide with the 25th anniversary of the first film, and is being approached as an official interactive sequel to Ghostbusters II.
