Getting the PS2 and PC versions – assuming the PC version is NOT crippled with the DRM and “additional software requirements” that GTAIV for the PC has.

Atari would do a major solid with PC gamers if they don’t put any DRM in the Ghostbusters PC game. DRM is pointless anyway. Those who pirate WILL do so anyway, no matter if there’s DRM or not. DRM only hurts the legitimate buyers of a product.

A $100m franchise eh? Cool. If they make it a series, Atari will do a better job and make it worthwhile, whereas Activision would release the same game every year with add-ons. And I’d be sucker enough to buy it.

360 for me, then Wii and maybe DS later, plz ^^

I will definitely be getting the PS3 (hopefully a Collector’s Edition:)) and PS2. And IF they had a PSP version I’d be getting another one…

I’ll be buying the PS3 & PSP version.
Many more friends i know, who are not big ghostheads, will be buying the game for the 1 simple reason:
It looks freaking awesome!

Looks like I’m the only one who’s going to get it for Wii, Xbox360, and PC only. Atari has always been a winner of a company with smart brains. Activision.. sorry but you’ve lost your brains somewhere back in the 90s. XD

Personally I think this game was never going to be the cash cow that Activision were craving but SFW? I cannot believe that Activision have become so shameless that they would actually ADMIT that making mindless sequels on a yearly basis is all they care about now.

Could Ghostbusters have become a yearly Activision event? I certainly hope not or we would’ve ended up with crappy, rushed sequels that we all would be powerless to resist anyway cause it was Ghostbusters.

Can Ghostbusters bring in that kind of revenue? Probably not, but is that really the end of the world Activision? It was always going to make money you short-sighted, narrow minded pigs but did it really HAVE to bring you $100M in revenue? If you’re going to survive in the long-term you are going to have to take some creative risks sometime without worrying so much about the short term-profit! Guitar Hero isn’t going to be a slam dunk forever..

All Four Baby! I only own an Xbox. But I know some great kids with the other platforms; I’ll play a late Santa and donate the other games.

I hope they make a collector’s edition, so I can spend even more money on the game and stick it to Activision even harder!

360, PS2 and whatever possible spinoff merchandise follows suit.

I was happy to pay full price on the first day of sale anyway, but at the chance to stick it to greedy Mr. Kotick, I’m game!

I really hope they do stick it to activision…if its one thing I myself love doing its proving people wrong just to shove it back in their face in every aspect possible. It truly is an exciting time for Ghostbusters fans, and will continue as long as things are done right. Cant wait for June 2009…WHO YA GONNA CALL?!
