Activision DROPS GHOSTBUSTERS FTL!!!
Tuesday, July 29, 2008

So Activision along with many other titles, is dropping the new Ghostbusters video game. The game is NOT canceled. Think of it like this. Your favorite band gets dropped from their label. Oh no, right? All you can do is hope they get picked up by another label (a decent one), or they might break up and you'll never hear anymore new music by them. Or they'll get picked up by a crappy label, and the quality won't be as good, and then they will be pulled from your myspace top friends list.



Ghostbusters wasn't the only game to get dropped, Brutal Legend, Wet, Chronicles of Riddick: Assault on Dark Athena, World in Conflict: Soviet Assault, 50 Cent: Blood on the Sand, Zombie Wranglers and Leisure Suit Larry: Box Office Bust are the others hoping to get picked up. If some of these games don't get picked back up, then it looks like you're never going to see them. Now, as much as I'd love to see the new 50 Cent video game, I'm not going to hold my breath.

I'm not too worried about Ghostbusters being picked back up, because I mean come on IT'S GONNA BE AWESOME. Don't believe me? Read Mr. Brad Disgusting's review of the game when he got to play it at Comic-Con, *cough* that son of a bitch *cough*. GHOSTBUSTERS REVIEW!

The game was supposed to be released in October of this year. Lets keep our fingers crossed it's not pushed back, or at least not too far.

Fucking bullshit...consider everyone at activision dead!

The game will continue on as planned...whether released by Activision or someone else, it's still coming. This has been one of the most hyped games of the year, it WILL be released!

hahahaha Activision killing spree

I may be alone in this, but it's the LEISURE SUIT LARRY drop that pisses me off the most. How many times is this character going to get shit on by the gaming industry? Yes, the games are sophomoric and crude, and no, they aren't what you'd call "innovative" anymore. But they are fun, have legions of fans around the world, and have made piles of money. Why can't some company just get behind the LSL franchise and run with it?

i just found out yesterday that ghostbusters has not been dropped

Activision DID drop the game along with those others, but they were only the Publishers. The game is still being developed, they just need to get picked up by new Publishers.

dammit! I wanted to play Chronicles of riddick seeing how I missed the change to play the old one and now I can't find the old one so I was waiting for the new one come out. I do hope the ghostbusters game gets picked up by a good company.

Ghostbusters and Brutal Legend were dropped! What the??? That's retarded!

ProudtobeUndead 8:07pm, August 5, 2008

I don't get it, why would they drop games that are obvioulsy going to be moneymakers? I've been following the Ghostbusters game, and it looks awesome. And if the next Riddick game is anything like the first one it'll be a solid game. Whatever, thier loss I guess, someone will pick up thier slack.
