Ghostbusters Stays True To Ray Parker Jr.

Wii News from N4G | Ghostbusters The Video Game

Wii - Ghostbusters The Video Game - Ghostbusters Stays True To Ray Parker Jr.

"Developer Terminal Reality was at one point pondering having a modern band redo the classic Ghostbusters theme for their upcoming game, lovingly previewed earlier today by our own Flynn De Marco, but as executive producer Brendan Goss would soon realize, people don't react well to blasphemy."

Sierra Spring Break 08: Stay Puff't confirmed for Ghostbusters, Infernal Engine looks amazing

Wii News from N4G | Ghostbusters The Video Game

Wii - Ghostbusters The Video Game - Sierra Spring Break 08: Stay Puff't confirmed for Ghostbusters, Infernal Engine looks amazing

Speaking to videogaming247 at the Sierra Spring Break 08 in Mallorca last week, Terminal Reality confirmed the everybody's favourite Marshmallow Man, Stay Puff't, will definitely feature in the upcoming Ghostbusters game, and showed the meltable monster off in a highly impressive Infernal Engine demo.

The first thing we saw in the tech display was 500 metal objects being dropped randomly into the game environment.

"What you can see here is that I can push against the pile [of objects] and the player can interact with physically simulated objects with no jitter, no pushing and no disability problems," said Mark Randel, Terminal Reality president.

Ghostbusters site goes live, Mr. Puft unreachable for comment

Wii News from N4G | Ghostbusters The Video Game

Wii - Ghostbusters The Video Game - Ghostbusters site goes live, Mr. Puft unreachable for comment

Destructoid writes: "A game site going live isn't normally an incredibly exciting part of a hyped game's belabored crawl to a release date, that is unless it's the site for Ghostbusters: The Game, at which point all bets are off and any new media is like perfectly melon-balled spheres of mana from heaven, fed to you by two shaven love-slaves whilst reclining on a dais carved from pure gold. Don't believe me? Just ask Colette; the woman literally urinated all over the new carpet in my office (utility closet) here at HQ when I showed her the site."

IGN: Ghostbusters: Video Game Preview

Wii News from N4G | Ghostbusters The Video Game

Wii - Ghostbusters The Video Game - IGN: Ghostbusters: Video Game Preview

It's clear, then, that Ghostbusters is on the right track. It's worth coming back, however, to the tech underpinning the game once again. After all, it was largely the technology ¿ the Infernal engine that Terminal Reality has been working on for the last seven to eight years ¿ that helped convince Sierra that the time was right to do Ghostbusters. As already mentioned, the physics system is top notch, allowing for hundreds of interactive/destructible objects to be on-screen at once (and you'll even get a 'damage done' total at the end of each mission), but the engine is also capable of creating other kinds of spectacles. As anyone who has seen the Ghostbusters films would know, whenever the city is about to be swallowed into hell, huge crowds of New Yorkers turn up to cheer or jeer our heroes on, irrespective of personal danger. The game will very much pay homage to this, with a lot of activity out on the streets. One scene in particular ¿ set during the Macy's Day Parade - will feature hundreds of people walking about at once. Stress tests on the system had 3000 basic polygonal characters walking up and down a section of street.

Wii News | Ghostbusters The Video Game

The PS2 and Wii versions, handled by developer Red Fly, will likely influence the multiplayer modes on other systems. Though Terminal Reality (handling the 'big' versions) is just as likely to have its own ideas. Ghosts vs Busters will throw two teams of players together, one trussed up with ...

Battle of the GTA clones

Wii News | The Godfather: Blackhand Edition

The funny thing about inventing a genre of videogames is that, until it becomes completely played out, every game that emulates your formula is going to be attached to your name. Games that feature a wide-open, freely explorable world, for example, will have a hard time avoiding the label of "Grand Theft Auto clone," especially if their worlds are littered with vehicles to steal and drive. In the six years since Grand Theft Auto III, a slew of games have tried to become "the next GTA," but so ...
