Ghostbusters The Video Game. Its almost Ghostbusters 3.
The game is based on the Ghostbusters film franchise. Ghostbusters creator Dan Aykroyd has confirmed that the game is essentially Ghostbusters 3.
The game's storyline was written by Dan Aykroyd and Harold Ramis, the writers of the original films. They, along with Bill Murray and Ernie Hudson, will also lend their voices and likenesses to the game. Several supporting cast members, such as William Atherton (Walter Peck), Brian Doyle-Murray (as the new mayor of New York, Jock Mulligan) and Annie Potts (Janine) have also signed on. However, Rick Moranis (Louis Tully) declined to end his retirement from acting to be a part of the game. In addition, Sigourney Weaver will not be reprising her role of Dana Barrett. Instead, Alyssa Milano will be playing the role of the new love interest in the game, Dr. Ilyssa Selwyn.
Dan Aykroyd has revealed that he prefers the Wii version of Ghostbusters: The Video Game because of its graphical resemblance to The Incredibles.
Speaking to Newsweek, the actor - who provides a voiceover in the game - also expressed his gratitude to the developers for portraying him several pounds lighter.
"Honestly, I love the way we look in the Wii platform, because it resembles the animation that was done in The Incredibles," he said.
"Anybody who looks like an Incredible is automatically a superhero. And I was so pleased that they shaved off at least 60 pounds from my current bulk. The boys look good. We resemble the actors who were in the first movie. You wouldn’t want us out there looking as we do today."
