No. It's for 360 and Wii as well. (Not sure about the Wii part, but that's what I heard)

Oh and I also heard the PS3 version will be the better one. (According to developers)

The Wii/PS2 gets the cartoony version....

Speaking to videogaming247 at the Sierra Spring Break 08 in Mallorca last week, Terminal Reality president Mark Randel admitted that Ghostbusters on PS3 has been held back by the fact will also release on 360, saying that the game would have double the amount of objects on screen if it had been PS3-only.

See below.

VG247: Why choose to lead on the PS3?

Mark Randell : Very simple reason: Ghostbusters is the property of Sony Pictures.

VG247: Right. But the game will be coming out on the 360, it’s a simultaneous release. Did Sony insist it was lead?

MR : Personally, I want to show off our PS3 technology. We’re one of the few developers who love the PS3 and have a great time with it. We have great technology for the PS3 and we want to show it off.

VG247: Isn’t it the same for the 360?

MR: We’re running the same game for both platforms but if we made a PS3-only game, for example, you could double the amount of objects on screen that you’re seeing. The PlayStation 3 has seven processors and the 360 only has three, so seven versus three means you can do a lot more on the PS3. We’re keeping the game the same over both platforms so we don’t want to take out any features.

VG247: So is the game scaled down because of the limitations of the 360?

MR : For example, we’ve reserved one whole processor on the PS3 for Dolby Digital 5.1 sound whereas on the 360 you have part of one processor to do that. So we can have a lot better sound mixing and a lot more effects going on at the same time. That kinds of makes us do a little bit less in the game [360] but makes for better audio. If we’re doing a PS3 only game however, we could be doing a lot more. We could be pushing a lot more on the screen.

Ghostbusters is out this coming October for PS3, 360, Wii, PS2 and DS.

I have been pretty stoked about this game since last fall. I do hope it's false what I hear about there being no multiplayer co-op. Although I'll at least be satisfied if the online play is good.

Not bad...I'll definitely buy this game unless reviewers warn me not to.



But, however, if I were directing the art direction in my preference or taste, I'd age and dirty up the graphics a bit.

It looks acceptable to me, but it's way too polished, brand new, and clean in my opinion. For instance, for the table cloth, I'd put almost imperceptible stains with microscpic tears or holes in them.

For the books on the ground, I'd also put small stains and dirts and scratches on them with maybe a leathery (not reflective) look on them.


I really like the look of GRAW2 and Ninja Gaiden Sigma and Motorstorm.

Youtube quality vid but there's some interesting ideas in there.

Thats unfortionate they had to dumb it down becuase of the 360 version, probably likely to happen more and more now as developers are staring to get the hang making great games for the ps3. Makes me thinks the rumors of a new Xbox coming out in late '09 are more likely if devoplopers are lowering standards for multiplatform games only 2.5 years into 360s lifespan.

I heard all of the original Ghostbusters were on board to help out with this, which would totally kick ass. This game will be a must-buy for me this year.

I am buying this, it goes without saying.

This will be a must have for any Ghostbusters fan.

Just for the record, Rick Moranis doesn't need to appear in the game.
