GV: Ghostbusters: The Video Game 360/PS3 Review

GV writes: "Ghostbusters fans have waited far too long for a good video game. After demo footage leaked of an independent project sporting the branding, rumors were immediately sparked about a new, next-gen Ghostbusters title. That footage was fake, but apparently helped prove the excitement level for the game, making it easy for Terminal Reality to grab the rights to develop the title under Activision's publishing. Once Activision and Vivendi merged, the game was thrown into limbo, and the return of the Ghostbusters was anything but secure. After a frightening few months, it found its way into the questionably stable hands at Atari, but the initial damage was done. The fact that it took so long to find a publisher caused some doubts about the game's quality, and many worried that the Ghostbusters return wasn't going to live up to the hype. Luckily, these worries were mostly unfounded, and there's no reason to be scared of these ghosts."
