Teamspeak would be awesome with this game. "Come in Ray" "Venkman! I sawitIsawitIsawit!" "It's right here, Ray. It's...looking at me" "He's an ugly little spud isn't he?" "I think he can hear you, Ray" "Don't Move! It Won't Hurt You!" "YEEEEEAAARRRGGGHHHHHH!!!!" Followed by, of course "haha u got teh slimed u n00b"

Latest News on the Game: xbox360.ign.com/articles/755/755532p1.htmlGhostbusters Game Busted Developer confirms spook-fest is on hold. by IGN StaffUK, January 16, 2007 Yesterday, our Aussie-bound IGN colleagues feverishly reported on several mysterious, leaked videos showing an Xbox 360 game based on the Ghostbusters franchise. Today however, we've gone one step further and contacted developer ZootFly to see exactly what the hell is going on. Excitingly, we can confirm that yes(!) ZootFly has been working on a Ghostbusters game and the videos that appeared on YouTube are indeed 100% legitimate. However, the bad news is that the game is currently on hold. Bostjan Troha, CEO of ZootFly, told IGN UK: "We are very glad to see the overwhelming response to the Ghostbusters prototype movies. What you've seen is indeed in-game footage of early prototypes on the Xbox 360, running on ZootFly's proprietary engine. Due to licensing issues, further development of the Ghostbusters game hit a bump on the road. But everybody here at ZootFly is working actively on resolving the challenges with the owners of the Ghostbusters IP. "Not to lose the momentum, a part the ZootFly team is currently working on an original game called TimeO, which is closely related to Ghostbusters. The game follows the adventures of two die-hard New Yorkers. They get trapped deep in the shadow world of a parallel New York. The city itself is a war machine threatening to wipe out our world and they have three days to stop it. As soon as the Ghostbusters IP issue is resolved, the whole team will go back to Ghostbusters." Fingers crossed that ZootFly manages to surmount those licensing obstacles so it can continue making our 80s movie dreams come true.

Yeah, PLEASE get those rights because the 360's forecast is looking pretty bleak.

I just noticed that the likeness of Bill Murray is pretty good.
And that may get Zootfly into a lot of trouble, since Bill Murray is vehemently against having his likeness used for anything (toys, cartoons, etc).
But maybe he'll mellow out and say "Hey, that's pretty good".

They sent him a detailed proto of how it would look but he still said no. That's why all they made were Gozer and Stay Puft Marshmellow Man.

Instant game over, when someone crosses the streams. It'd be like the equivalent of the Redeemer tactical nuke that you got in the 1st Unreal Tournament that kills everybody. So, in other words, a teamkillers paradise...... hooray! I can hear the teamchat now "I GOEZ CROZZES T3H STREEMZ NOWS!" *BOOM* "HAHAHAHA, YOU ALLZ GET DERANK'D!"

The only thing I know is that he is dead against doing a third film.
Don't know if that the reason for it though.

I don't think hes being a bad guy for not wanting it. he's pretty private and probably just doesn't want his face on as many products as there are.

There was an interview with Harold Ramis a while back (the link to it should still be on the Wiki page for GB), and he said that they had an entire script worked out, but that Murray and Akyroyd didn't want to do it. The script sounded cool: Ghostbusters in Hell. Apparently, gateways of sorts open up in NYC that lead to a mirror dimension that is composed of all forms of hell (think of fire and brimstone laced with rush hour traffic, annoying TV ads, and other concepts of modern annoyances).

Just a hunch, but, perhaps "actor" isn't the best choice for someone that private. Just like "wrestler" may not've been the career for a mentally unstable person with travel issues, eh Brock?

Hey, hey, that's not necessary..........I hear he's getting ready to make a big splash in the world of professional football.

Just because he appears on film doesnt mean his life has to be open for all to see. It's his face, he can do whatever he wants with it. Besides, he isnt saying "I'll do it for a million dollars or else" Basically you can offer whatever you like I wont change my mind.

But...how does putting your face on an action figure open up your life? You should do some things for the fans who made you somebody.
Like the Honky Tonk Man. He's been b******* and crying non stop for 10 years about how much he hates WWE, but he signed a deal with Jakks to get a figure made of him.
Whats that? You say he did it for money, not his fans?! IMPOSSIBLE! THAT CANT BE!

Because he doesnt have it. Would it be nice? Yes, it would. But Im not going to villainize someone because I cant have an action figure of him or that he wont appear in a video game(he isnt the first, Michael Madsen is the only actor to let the use of his face in the Reservoir Dogs game, Bruce Willis didnt appear in the DIe Hard game)
And about the "fans." Fans are very quick to attack someone after they do something they dont like and rip into them. Its a form of appeasement to give into that mentality that to keep these people happy because if you dont then you dont care about them. hes an actor, his job is on the screen and he keeps it that way.

I just think its a s***** way to treat your fans. And as for Bruce Willis, I'm pretty sure he was in a game before (But I cant recall what it was called), maybe he just wanted too much money for the Die Hard game. Anyone remember what the game was? I never played it but I heard it sucks. I wanna say it was called Armageddon or Apocalypse or something like that.

I never played it but I heard it sucks. I wanna say it was called Armageddon or Apocalypse or something like that. It was Apocalypse. Bruce Willis was sorely misused in that game [/wcwmadmanfanatic]. His dialogue was not coherent, and a lot of one-liners were thrown out there while you're playing, like "Kill 'em all, let God sort 'em out". Had the game had a better script, I'm sure that his voice talent would have been better. I think he really looked at it as a payday, really. And the gameplay stinks worse than Cleveland Brown's terrible foot odor.
