The question isn't if Murray is coming back, but it's if he's coming back as a Ghostbuster. I know Murray is going to be in the game, but Akroid didn't have him written as a Ghostbuster in the third script, even when Murray said he'd do it, so he may not be a Ghostbuster in this one.

*That was the third, apparently now-aborted “Hellbent” script…

*Dan, over the course of the time he was writing this , slowly nudged Bill's role out of the story slowly but surely, as a response to Bill's constant answer of “NO” to a third film…Which ended up with Peter being DEAD . and appearing as a ghost in a cameo only …I believe the final draft had him not present AT ALL…

*I've already stated my opinion on as to “why” Bill didn't want to be involved with a third, live-action film…But this is a GAME - ALL CG…And as such there would be NO REASON, as to why he wouldn't appear in it AS a “Ghostbuster”…

*We haven't even heard what the full story of the game is to be yet anyways, slight of a few “nods” here and there, and explanations of the “tutorial” levels…

Well, I'd say he's definately in the game since Vivendi's official press release lists Bill Murray's name as part of the returning actors. Since its just a video game, I'm sure Bill will be back as a GB also since as has been said, voice sessions are a lot easier to do.

It's simple.

Back in the days, they said Venkman would be a ghost in GB3.

Now we're talking about that game, and you can't see Venkman, but they told us Murray's involved.
Since there is a Gozerian museum, there'll be Gozer. And this time, the form of the destructor will be the form of Venkman.

Oh my god, never thought of that one :-)

It's only sad that Dana won't be in this :-)

Of course he was… even if Venkman was called “sub creature” in GB1 :-)

Who knows, maybe it inspired Aykroyd/Ramis :-)

It's Bill Murray. They're asking will (Bill) Murray return as Peter Venkman.
