Co-Optimus:
Usually game box art is hit or miss as to whether or not what's advertised on the cover is in the game. The upcoming Ghostbusters game from Atari though is being straight up about it.

The Wii, PS2, and DS versions differs greatly in graphical style from the 360 and PS3 version, and the box arts for those respective versions mimic it. Even the ghosts on the E10+ Rated versions aren't as menacing as the T rated version. The It's good to see publishers taking the honest and upfront route in this case.

They'll end up moving onto other projects while searching for someone - anyone - to come in and publish their product. Sometimes the new publisher just ends up dumping the game in stores with zero marketing. However, the upcoming multi-platform Ghostbusters game seems to have benefited from being dumped by their original publisher.
