Even if it's funny, the problem is that if it isn't at least as funny as the 1984 movie, it'll be considered a disappointment. And since the 1984 movie was a work of genius, the chances that it'll be as funny are pretty low.

If they'd gone with an original concept that had no connection to Ghostbusters at all they would have avoided the entire comparison. Instead they invited it, but unless it's a genius-level effort, they have no chance of coming out ahead.

but apparently feeling that way around here makes you a misogynist, for some reason

Add me to that same club! I loved both films. I never understood the hate for GB2 either.

Not to mention most coinciding movie video games end up sucking.

Ironically enough, this one didn't:

I'm actually surprised that they're making a game for this. It seems like the only movie games that are released anymore are either Lego or Disney Infinity games.

I liked that game :up:
 
I LOVED that game I beat the PS3 version and have like 65% of the trophies for it but will never get 100% cause a good chunk of them are online only ones and they took down the servers for PS3 I heard the 360 still can go online :(.
 
Initial thoughts aren't good, but mainly because it's a movie tie in and even the movie itself has had a quick turnaround. Though I'm excited for the new film, I hope it's based on the old universe and has been in development for longer than we know. The new film, however, looks like it has a lot of cool gadgets that could translate to a fun game. We'll see.

That took 3 years to make, this new game sounds like a rush job considering they just announced it to coincide with the new movie and there hasn't been any screen grabs or anything yet.
 
So...where the hell is the trailer? To quote Sean Connery: I'm waiting to be impresshd.

You are correct, but, this game was not rush made and released with a film like most movie coinciding games are. This game took time to be developed and was not a rush release. I'm speaking more on the terms of movie games rushed to be released before, during or right after the movie is released. For example, Superman Returns the game, IronMan, fight club, games like that.

I've only played one movie game that was actually good that the game was released right around the same time as the movie and that was Batman Begins.
 
This movie is guaranteed to go down in history one way or the other. I don't see it being "okay" or "average". It's either going to surprise everyone and be huge, or it's going to be one of the biggest mistakes in Hollywood history. It's Ghostbusters. It's going to have a colossal impact whether it's good or bad. I think that's why they're hiding the trailer. They're not going to drop some 2-minute POS without having a strategy.

Also, this movie is culturally important outside of having the Ghostbusters brand. And there's a lot riding on this for Sony as it's probably the last thread of a franchise that they're holding onto. They lost half of Spidey, and who the hell knows what's going on with Men in Black or 23 Jump Street, and they're sure to lose James Bond very soon. What's left for them... Resident Evil?

Spider-man 1 and especially Spider-man 2 were very good movie video games.

True

I used to play Spider-Man all the time. I had Spider-Man 2, but for some reason I never finished it.

Batman Returns and Judge Dredd on SNES were also great games.

Awe...Superman Returns. Let's make a game that coincides with the movie, but only tell the story from the movie through cutscenes and have the player involved in a lot of boring skirmishes that have nothing to do with the movie.
