The news came late in the Sony event at Sydney and it's big; the implications are even bigger.
The Sony event in Sydney is still rolling on but in espionage-like movements that would put Sam Fisher to shame, the Gameplayer staff have managed to get more breaking news through. This particular announcement was left until the end, and with good reason; it's huge.

WTMG's Todd Eggleston: "Ghostbusters The Video Game is nostalgia done right, and puts you right back in 1984. It isn’t a masterpiece of a game, and neither was the movie, but it reminds us again that it is ok for entertainment to just be entertaining. It is a game that deserves to be remastered and remembered. And 35 years later, it also serves to remind us that a remaster doesn’t always need to be Fall Out Boy and Missy Elliott. Sometimes, Ray Parker Jr. is exactly who you need to call."
Joseph, Josh, and Chris discuss Fortnite Season 2, Okami 2, and the continuing Blizzard controversy.
"If this turns out to be the case it would mean that only the PS2 and PS3 would receive the game, while the Xbox 360, Wii, DS and PC would be left in the dark."
or they could publish the game and gain royalties from the other companies/platforms or the old timed exclusive stuff.
This is huge!
Ever occured to anyone that the 360 and nintendo versions can have different publishers ?
Even EU, JP and USA versions of a game, often have different publishers.
Hmmm...interesting news, considering that ALL versions of the game must be pretty much complete at this point. Given the amount of money the devs have already poured into the Xbox and wii versions, I'd say Sony is probably going to be publishing the game on Sony platforms only. This doesn't necessarily mean it won't come out on any other platforms, just that they'll need separate publishers to do so.
There's not a chance in hell Sony will publish the game for wii or 360, but it seems almost as unlikely that the devs would just toss out the other versions of the game unless Sony cut them one helluva big cheque.
in before 80+comments.
Good troll
