    Yes, that's right, the Ghostbusters of course!

    "While you’re probably busy being buried by this year’s holiday releases, we’re busy bringing you the biggest world exclusives in Game Informer Magazine. Today, we’re dropping the bomb on our December world-exclusive cover story – Ghostbusters!

    Harold Ramis, Bill Murray and Dan Aykroyd are getting back together and revisiting their roles to make a sequel to Ghostbusters 1 and 2 – in video-game form, and we’ve got the first details. Both Aykroyd and Ramis are teaming up for scriptwriting duties and are going far beyond just the typical licensed add-your-voice-to-the-game-you-had-nothing-to-do-with formula. And no, this has nothing to do with the Ghostbusters Zootfly video demonstration that floated around the internet in January."

    Yes! Bill Murray!
    Co-op and multiplayer. Mr Stay Puft. This has potential.

    I remember seeing the leaked video a few months ago and hoping that it wasn't a fake.

    Yay.

    I've been using the medic in TF2 to fullfill my Ghostbusting fantasies.

    This has the potential to be the best video game adaptation ever.
    That screenshot fills me with hope - is that Ghostbuster actually rapelling down a building to fight Stay Puft? If so... kick ass. Serious ass.

    There was one knocking about , but the company involved didnt have the official licence etc and it was really just done as a spec demo...still though , this is GREAT news.Hasnt been a decent ghostbusters game since the last version on the megadrive years ago!(hey i always preferred it to the david crane c64 one!)

    If they keep it to the film then he will be onionhead not slimer. Still though this looks promising and hopefully will get people calling Stay Puft by the right name! (not Stay Puff)
