I was wondering if anybody caught it yet.
It's an insider newsletter from July talking about the destructability in the game.

… I was planning on getting the Wii version as well as the 360 version from the start, and I'm glad I am.

Same here, I bought the 360 on xmas, and will buy the Wii after the wedding.

Well, my Wii was the first console I got, I waited till Microsoft got the RRoD's under more control before getting one of those, but now that I do, I can get both versions, whenever they get released.

That reminds me, last issue we discussed the second rule of ghost busting, so (super)naturally you should learn the third rule this time: “Split up. We can do more damage that way.”

I loled, its to bad that they have to get threw Activision's BS before the engine can be played by gamers worldwide, cause it sounds great.

My dad is a electronics department manager and has the number to a lot of the companies. So he should be able to find out about he games release through the sales stand point not a fans stand point.

As of of now, none of us even knows who is going to be publishing it. Activision is probably not even sure yet at this point. I really don't get why they aren't gonna be publishing it, as this is a title that is sure to sell.

Anyone realize that this contradicts a stated rule, by Egon, from the pilot of EGB?

More and likely the guy in control has no idea about pop culture and was hired because he was able to make a big profit in a previous business.

EGB is not exactly cannon with the films. Meaning we don't try to tie both of them together too much. :p They're in there own plot line really.

Actually, I think I read somewhere on the blog said that the guy in control was the same guy that had control of Activision when the original Ghostbusters game were being made. I can't remember where I read it, it was either that or I mind was making up fake news. :p

(*egon)

In that case he is an old executive that has gone Senile over the years and thanks to previous releases of the Ghostbusters games, he now associates the name Ghostbusters to nightmares of angry fan letters from the past. :p

What's this “we” business? Some people DO like a combined movie/cartoon continuity.
