Miracles do happen: Game Informer to reveal new Ghostbusters game based on never produced movie
Email This Post
Fans, and even Dan Akroyd, have been clamoring for a third installment in the Ghostbusters series since the second slightly-better-than mediocre movie came out. Akroyd even said he had written a script for it. One of the major elements keeping it back was Bill Murray’s desire to never make a Ghostbusters movie again.
Apparently hell has frozen over, though, and Kotaku is reporting that in the next issue of Game Informer they’re going to reveal the game that would’ve been the movie. Making hell in even better condition for snowmen is the news that the original Ghostbusters, Dan Akroyd, Bill Murray and Harold Ramis, are working on the script and will be doing the voice overs as well.
Now, as a wee lad Ghostbusters was second only to Ninja Turtles in my eyes. I had the backpack, the trap and, I admit it, even the Stay Puft Marshmallow man stuffed toy thing. Since Ghostbusters II, though, the whole franchise has been on a steady decline. Will this return of the originals revive the franchise, or will it just continue to suck harder than a black hole? I sincerely hope the former because my nostalgia can’t take another 80s remake that epic fails.
