It's definitely the new ECU. Here is a tour of the entire firehouse: http://www.youtube.com/user/ProtonGame#uploads/0/I3IaNvMj9Es

What I'm wondering is: What is that washing machine looking thing to the right?

Back-up generator of some sort I would imagine.

This is the containment unit

It looks like they upgraded it to be bigger and have its own generator, but nothing like Ghostbusters cartoon.

It's very steampunk, isn't it?

In several interviews with the developers I recall them mentioning that you would be able to view inside the ECU and see the ghosts captured in there…. I wonder if thats still a feature…. I didn't see it in the firehouse vid.

any word on that Skankerzero??(*egon)

I pulled some screenshots so that you don't have to skip around the video.

I'm sure it's used to clean the slime-filled uniforms.

I thought it was funny in that video that one guy was nervous when he pulled the leaver.

lol. “Should you really being pulling that?”

My favorite thing about that, well other then seeing the inside of the firehouse was hearing them pulling a William Shatner and talk singing part of On Our Own I think it was.

i was expecting more interaction with the CU, but in the video it looks like you can only activate a lever that turn red the lights and make some noise and thats all

I don't really know what interaction you really expected from the containment unit actually.

I can see the switch that cleans the trap, but meh.

The firehouse looks awesome.

Hey Skanks, just curious if you can answer, when designing the firehouse did you guys actually have Dan look at it or did you have to make some stuff up? I am sure you looks at both movies to see what kind of things are noticeable from the movies such as Janine's desk, Peter's desk, and such.
