In one of those great moments of corporate synergies Atari has announced that the new
Ghostbusters game will be shippping to stores on June 16, 2009, the same day the Blu Ray version of the movie will be available for purchase. Blatant packaging schemes aside (yeah, I know I'm going to end up picking up both of them at the same time) this is good news for a game that was nearly a victim of the Vivendi-Activision merger.
Those worried about a cheap knock-off should be aware that the game was written by the folks behind the movie and is being considered the sequel they didn't make. The majority of the voice talent is returning for the game and they are using Terminal Velocity's fantastic new game engine which is demonstrated in the following screenshots.
