“There’s something strange, in the neighborhood – who you gonna call?” – boy, did I look forward to that jingle every week on my TV back in the days where I was a kid and did not have ravaging hormones of puberty wrecking my body and mind in all directions. Ghostbusters was one of the better cartoons out there alongside TMNT, and who could forget the whole line of toys that came with it? Well, there isn’t a reboot or remake of the Ghostbusters movie for the moment, but that doesn’t mean you can’t have a new video game released! Ghostbusters: The Video Game aims to be a summer blockbuster hit across America.

Working closely with Sony Pictures Consumer Products and acclaimed development studios Terminal Reality and RedFly, Atari brings this completely all-new chapter of the blockbuster Ghostbusters saga to advanced gaming platforms coinciding with the 25th Anniversary celebration of the film’s original theatrical release. Ghostbusters: The Video Game, based on the smash hit motion picture franchise, is penned by original Ghostbusters writers and stars Harold Ramis and Dan Aykroyd and reunites many of the original cast members. In addition, the game also launches today along with Sony Pictures Home Entertainment’s worldwide debut of the original motional picture on Blu-ray Disc.
