The Official GHOSTBUSTERS Thread

The game has been leaked for the 360 already.

Anyway...here's a preview from GameTrailers. I haven't watched it yet, so I don't know about any spoilers it might contain.

 

[Tron Bonne]

I watched it, there's several bits of new footage, but nothing I think would be considered spoiler worthy

 

[ProjectPat2280]

Im wiggin out waiting for this game. This has been the LOONGEST wait ever!!!

 

[ProjectPat2280]

Went in to Gamestop today and the manager, who is a friend of mine, went ahead and gave me the pre-order shirt. I took a few low res, camera phone photos.

 

[SpideyForPrez]

Cool, so I guess the shirt isn't the cartoon version, great! What size did you get pat? When I got Web of Shadows they only had XL and XXL, and that annoys me. Not sure I'd really wear the shirt in public, little too geeky for me. I have some more tasteful GB tees anyway.

Only a few more days...

 

[ProjectPat2280]

XL was all they had, but it runs a little small, so i think if i shrink it in the dryer, it might fit well.

 

[SpideyForPrez]

It's actually a pretty cool shirt/design. I just don't like wearing anything that says "The Video Game".

 

[ProjectPat2280]

Haha yea, i actually dont have any other 'video game' tees and usually, id agree with ya. But its Ghostbusters, i plan on wearing it.

 

[Tron Bonne]

Yes, I'm glad it looks like you got the big boy boxart version. I don't care much for the character designs on the other versions. I can easily see myself wearing that

Wait... what do you mean the game has been leaked for 360? What can people download it somehow, or am I just misunderstanding things here?

 

[Tron Bonne]

I'm thinking that's what he means. It's happened like that before, a full game somehow getting leaked before retail release. I believe the last game that I remember hearing about that happening was Fallout 3

 

[ProjectPat2280]

Haha yea, when he handed it to me, i didn't check it until i got back into my car, and i was praying it was the 360/PS3 cover art. I hated the way the Wii visuals look. Prefer my Dan Aykroyd to look like Dan Aykroyd.

 

[SpideyForPrez]

I imagine that's very illegal? Lame that stuff like that happens.

BTW, I picked up the latest Toyfare yesterday cause the cover story was about Ghostbusters. I haven't had a chance to read the article yet but I think it talks about the game, ghostbusters' future, and some stuff about some toys coming out. May be interesting to you other fans.

 

[Tron Bonne]

I hope all of the pre-orders are like that for all the GameStops. I like that one

IGN UK's review is up, overall score of 8.5

http://ps3.ign.com/articles/993/993505p1.html



That graphics score is much closer to what I would give the game based on what we've seen in trailers and previews than the US review.

IGN gave "The Force Unleashed" a 7.5 and I thought it was a solid 8-9.

If they give Ghostbusters an 8 well then...it's sure to blow my mind!!! t:

Most 360 games are available for download prior to the release date

 

[Mike_D202]

Well, that and some smaller video game stores don't believe in "official" release dates and started selling the game early. There's a guy over at the gbfans.com forums who got his today and started playing it, lives in Brooklyn NY.

 

[ChrisBaleBatman]

New York. Gotta love it.

If I had the cash, I'd totally go hunting for it in the Bronx.

 

[BlackLantern]

I just read the Acheivements for the 360 version....yea...Im going to **** this game, I'm going to **** this game hard

 

[Nivek]

I called my local Gamestop today, they said it was available for pick-up for preorders Monday night/Tuesday morning, can anyone else confirm this?

 

[Tron Bonne]

My told me it would be around 12 PM Tuesday when they got the shipment in. They really aren't suppose to sell the game before street date, but I've heard some GS stores buck the rules sometimes

 

[BlackLantern]

Ive worked in 2 GameStops 1 in CT and 1 in CA and you do NOT break street date....my boss got a serious reaming for it once

so is the release date the 16th or the 19th??

 

[Tron Bonne]

16th for the States, 19th for Europe

 

[ProjectPat2280]

Any of your stores doing a midnight release? I dont think the one here is doing one, bummer.

 

[Lord Valumart]

where would i be able to buy an american 360 copy that would allow me to ship to the UK? i must know
