Forums - Gaming - Sony pick up Ghostbusters game

Ajescent on 06 May 2009

Oh, not such a dickish move then. But still, it's nice to see them stepping up and making these kinds of moves regardless of what you think about them.

The resistance

I wonder if this is just to test the waters with a game and film on one disc in one region. The game has had good press and with the film on the way I think this may be an experiment in maximizing exposure and trying something different.

This is only for PAL, it doesn't affect North America or Japan.

I panicked like crazy until I read and saw only in the PAL region, I have my PC and Wii versions reserved and paid for @_@

Yeah, every time Sony uses their weight to sell a game based on one of their film properties or to keep the 360 from being able to watch Sony movies on netflix it is considered a "dick move", but every time Microsoft steals a PS3 exclusive, it is considered a wonderful thing.

I wonder why that is?

Because when Microsoft "steals a PS3 exclusive," they're making a game go multiplatform, meaning more people can play it? While in this case, Sony is preventing people from playing a multiplatform game unless they play it on a Sony system?

And if you'd take off your Sony goggles, you'd see that Microsoft takes a lot of heat for its timed exclusives, too.

 

This.

Ugh, people can't read.
Terminal Reality is doing the HD version
Red Fly Studios is doing the Wii version. http://wii.ign.com/articles/960/960424p1.html

This news only affects the Terminal Reality version. Thus the Wii version will go on scheduled as planned.
