Congrats to the gang at Rainmaker (a couple of whom I was lucky enough to meet last year at a Vancouver screening) for snagging a Canadian Video Game Award for Best Cinematics – Rainmaker was responsible for all of the between mission movie cinematics (and even a few that didn’t make it into the final game.)
While not the first Ghostbusters-themed tour of New York (nor second even), this newly posted entry is a nice addition to the growing collection.
Remember that internal Apple sales video, that spoofed the Ghostbusters music video? Well, that one was cut down by nearly two minutes, which we know now because the full version has popped up! The video now includes an appearance by Steve Jobs (in full Blue Buster gear) and concludes with [...]

It was pretty much a given, once Mattel announced that they were canceling Club Ecto, the subscription based service that provided fans with first crack at unique figures, but Scott “ToyGuru” Neitlich, Mattel’s brand manager in charge of the license, confirmed a lot more details today, outlining exactly why the [...]
Robin “Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous” Leach interviewed Dan Aykroyd about some new happenings at the House of Blues in Las Vegas, but still took a moment – his opening question in fact – to ask about Ghostbusters 3. Dan’s answer is basically “maybe yes, maybe no” with a [...]
A few people have suggested it should read “Back off, Man. I’m a scientist.” as the motto, but still, an awesome crest from Bensanity. [VIA Ghostbusters.org]
Ghosthead and IGN writer, Greg Miller, filed a story today that Sony will be releasing some Ghostbusters DLC into their unique, but not quite set-the-world-on-fire, fighting game on the PS Vita; Reality Fighters. In short, you take a picture of your face, place it on a character, design the character [...]

I was under the impression that Rainmaker only did the cinematics and not the in-game cut-scenes [think Peter, Ray, and the Rookie in the elevator; or alternatively when Jock is introduced and appoints Peck to oversee the boys]…
Well it’s good that the Ghostbusters game gets more recognition. I am kind of surprised, however. I felt a lot of the cinematics were awkward and poorly paced, definitely the weakest part of the game. Just one man’s opinion. I mean, the example video above is great, but they’re not all like that.
Good for them! It’s nice to see Rainmaker can still kick ass even after going from Mainframe Entertainment to this new enterprise.
Now, does this mean they’ll get off their butts and start working on the new ReBoot series?
Yes, they only did the cinematics, as above, not the in-engine cutscenes mid-mission (or, if mission is confusing the issue, mid-chapter.)
