2007 – Get In The Game
While we chew our nails waiting for news of something – anything – relating to Ghostbusters, moves are quietly afoot on another front.
But while all seems well on the gaming front, the console version of Ghostbusters goes through almost as many false starts and shutdowns as the third film itself.
First, Universal’s Vivendi arm buys the rights to the game from Sony. It announces that Aykroyd and Ramis will write the script and almost everyone – even Bill Murray – will return to lend their voices.
Then the team working on the game announces that they’re shutting it down. Then, they’re not. Then… Who knows?
Finally, the game is rescued by Atari, which proudly trumpets a June 2009 release date across all platforms.
Fingers crossed, people…

Total agreement - it NEEDS the original cast, it NEEDS a kick*ss script, and I think the Seth Rogen, Paul Rudd team would be fantastic, because they already have fantastic chemistry, and they are good actors. So long as it doesn't turn into a farts 'n' giggles flick. Keep it funny, keep it good!

They need to do the Hell style Manhattan with that siffler guy. It keeps with the two toned action- adventure/ Horror & comedy genre that the first two did so well. I think these guys who write the office will just make some gags and one liners, and not a really gripping story like the first 2. But you never know. It could be amazing And I'm also down with Seth Rogen and Paul Rudd, I love those guys. Who cares if they are i everything, they are great and they should be in everything, and I know they can pull off the chemistry of the 1st Ghostbuster members.
