I am shocked this game does not have a thread yet. This thing looks awesome.
If you want to see the opening for it on 350 and PS3 check out Gametrailers.com.
I will post news on the game in here when it is released.

I'm not gonna say anything affirmative right now, but the news that's rolling in, it's not exactly clear right now, you can read about it on the gaming blogs, but non Sony Platform owners are going to be PISSED. At least in Europe. US probably won't be affected. EDIT: Yeah, it looks like Europe isn't going to be getting the 360, Wii, and DS versions until later in the year... www.mcvuk.com/news/34186/Sony-to-publish-Ghostbusters

Makes me glad I own a PS3, have waited far too long for this game. It is been reported on a few sites that this could also affect North America, it seems to be varied at the moment.
As snake originally said in his post of this though the feeling seems to be US probably won't be affected, but there is no deffinate word on that just yet. Either way, i'm in the UK and i'm just glad to have the PS3 as we're deffinatley only getting it on that platform in the near future.

I'm really not surprised though. I mean, the franchise is Sony property. I'm more surprised that this is just now starting to happen.

That's it right there. This is a big year for Ghostbusters, as Sony, if you have the opportunity to whore out your own franchise as much as possible, and have the ability to publish the game on your own, you should do it. It will make certain consumers mad, but when aren't consumers unhappy these days anyways? My plan has always been to buy it on the PS3, since I like the continuity of having the movies on Blu-Ray as well as the game.

I was always going to buy it on PS3 because...well, I only own a PS3.
I think many people will be annoyed with the news, but everyone can appreciate the business decision and Sony having no intention of helping the competition, it's just how it is. I'm personally not into the whole console war, I just have the console I have because I wanted to keep playing my older games. I think it would be ashame if this does become a global timed release and restricts owners of other platforms from enjoying the game, but on the other hand I find it hard to believe it will only be Europe that is affected due to the size of the market Sony would be missing.
On a side note, has any more been said about the multiplayer features and whether a local multiplayer campaign will still be featured?

I find the UK delay a little annoying, I can understand Sony wanting to do it PS3 first, others later and that's fine. But I think it's a bit of a joke how late they left it and that it's not happening the same in the States too. I'm not one who's pre-ordered it but I'd have thought the people who did will be slightly annoyed.
But ah well, I've still got games to finish and there are a few other things coming out in the next few months that look promising so it's not too big a deal.

I agree with that, I think if Sony wanted a timed exclsuive or any form of exclusive they should have taken this step when the games development was first dropped, a month before launch is far too late. Edit: Official Atari press release: So there we go, it's only PAL regions, the 360 and wii owners of America still get their dose of the ghostbusters!

I'm not sure if they're different games, but the presentation and appearence is totally different. The wii and PS2 versions are the same from what I've read so i'll probably get the PS3 version and the PS2 version when it's reduced.
Edit: Found this, this might help: “The storyline from the next-gen version will be carried out in its entirity in our game, but our primary focus is on multiplayer,” said Red Fly’s Jeff Mills. “So we’ll reproduce everything you do in the game, but then we’ll repurposed the maps for various multiplayer things and introduce new maps for multiplayer scenarios as well

Deffinatley my most anticipated game of all time, just hope i'm not dissapointed with it when it finally gets to the day of release! Also hoping there will be a local co-op mode, i'm not sure where they ended up in regards to the multiplayer features for the next gen consoles.

I don't think they can mess this one up.
We've been put through too many cancellations and date changes for it to suck.
Well that's what Im telling myself to keep myself from worrying.
