What am I in for? Is it true this is supposed to be the real

>>386907205
Unironically one of the best tie-in video games made, this was the true Ghostbusters 3.

>>386907205
Yes, until in Comic Con, they took this game out of the cannon.

Its the best sequel we're ever going to get now that Ramis is gone. And its great on its own, too.

Great game and the Ghostbusters 3 we deserved
If you were ever a kid in the 80s or early 90's who wore the toy proton pack toy and trap and went out to catch ghosts this game is basically that come to life

>>386907828
This I was

I guess I'll finally try this as well. Every single time the 2016 remake is discussed, the game is brought up.

>>386907560
Why can't it be canon? Not like the universe of the old movies will ever be used again.

>>386907961
Sure it will, they will use cgi to bring them all back after they've been dead for a while and their descendants want some quick money

>>386907961
I think the way they're doing it, it to have separate timelines, for the 2016 flop and the original. Supposedly the new movie would focus on one of the new characters going to the timeline of the older ones.
So, the game's not cannon.

>>386908114

Pfft, "new movie", he says. That ain't happening.

As for canon, this game actually is canon for the IDW comics that are set after the movies. The player character is even a supporting, recurring character. They're amazing by the way. If you love GB you should try them.

>>386908114
they can't be insane enough to ever touch the Fembusters again can they?

>>386907560
>>386908114
>cannon
you mean canon

>>386908302

It cost them 70 million bucks and a billion dollar writedown for the year. Fuck no they're not touching it again.

>>386907205
It's a pretty fun game, especially if you like Ghostbusters. It's pretty fucking spooky at times too.

Sony needs to stop.

>>386908302
>>386908246
I'm not making stuff up. Watch their panel at Comic Con. I COULD be misremembering stuff though.
>>386908306
Yes

>>386907205

The only complaint I can think of is that they recycled the film soundtracks far too often, some new scores mixed in with the old stuff would have made it less repetitive.

Aside from that it's pretty goddamn fun, they even brought back the original guys for Vigo and Dickless.

>>386908729

Sony won't be touching Ghostbusters again for a good while. Assuming they even live long enough.

>>386908882
I hope not. I'd rather see Ghostbusters dead than in the slithery hands of Sony.

>>386908882
Assuming their movie department lives long enough that is. I actually don't know if they're making negative profits with the PS4 though. Everything but their gaming division is flopping horribly and the company has been bleeding money for years. It's actually bizarre that they've managed to stick around as long as they have.

>>386909036

Again, read the IDW comic. Its amazing.

They're even using the fembusters and somehow making them bearable.

I only have 2 problems. 1 is that they shut down Multiplayer for PC and didn't even include a LAN option. Second is that I would have added adventure mode instead of just endless horde maps. I feel like this game could have greatly benifited as a bit of a L4D like, having long dungeons to fight and then big areas with bosses.

>>386907205
It was basically ghostbusters 3 and it was great

>somehow making them bearable
perhaps it's because the writer has done female Ghostbusters already and isn't a retard

>>386909764

Probably, yeah. The writer and the artist are gods.

>>386909343
I don't think PC ever had multiplayer. However, recently this year it was pulled from Steam. But you can still get a key for 10 bux on Gamestop's website.

Is it true the ghostbusters reboot didn't make a profit?

>>386910126

It ultimately cost them a billion bucks.

http://www.reuters.com/article/us-sony-outlook-idUSKBN15E0NN

>>386910105

It did. They shut PC mp down first though. Console stayed up for a long as time.

>>386908728
Homecoming was decent. Marvel basically made the film while Sony holds on to the Spider-Man license. Everything Sony makes with their own directors is trash

>>386910310
>Fox holds Fantastic 4
>Sony holds Spider-Man
>Disney owns Marvel
How this shit even happens I will never fucking understand. Copyright/Trademark laws are so fucking weird.

>>386910448

Its pretty easy. Back around the turn of the millennium Marvel sold the rights to Fox and Sony for money (they were hurting at the time). Contracts like that last a long time. At this point Disney's only option is to buy them back or wait for Fox and Sony to give them back willingly.

>>386910448
Don't quote me on this but I'm pretty sure Marvel sold off the license to Fantastic 4 and Spiderman in the late 90s/early 2000s BEFORE they made their big cinematic universe in 2008 with Iron Man. Now Fox and Sony want to hold on to their super hero licenses because they're valuable.

>>386907205
This game was great. Just played it again earlier this year. Shame you couldn't drive the car though.

>>386910756
You can drive it in the DS version. The whole thing is top down. Heard mixed things about the quality, though.

>>386910213
I'm not convinced it was the sole reason but I'm glad it hurt Sony.

>>386909136
>They're even using the fembusters
>and somehow making them bearable.
I refuse to believe this is possible.
Also how? Is it some stupid crossover hijinx?
I suppose it's more believable than the TMNT.

>>386910638
>>386910751
At this point they'll hold onto them until Disney has to forcibly rip them off of their decayed corpses. Whether or not how soon that'll be, well, only time can tell, I guess.

>>386910638
They're trying to buy them back from Fox but Fox won't stop making movies they know are going to flop just so they can hold on to the licenses.

I mean, Logan and Deadpool were good out of the recent movies, but everything else since X2 sucked.

>>386910879
The problem was never the characters, it always was the writing.

>>386909036
Could be worse, it could be owned by Disney. They'd shit out a sequel every 16 months and drive it into the ground so everyone hates it.

>>386911030
Quit hating on Disney Wars, they're better than anything Lucas did.

>>386910829
I keep forgetting there's other versions. Might try that one then, thanks for the heads up.

Well everything was going fine until dickless here >>386911072 ruined the thread.

>>386910879

Their dimensions are starting to merge due to portal shenanigans.

And they're bearable because they aren't overshadowing the originals, and Melissa McCarthy's character is pretty much spending the whole mini feeling miserable that she isn't "special and unique" anymore.

>Ghostbusters 2016

Stop shilling the shitty IDW series so much.

Right now there are 3 canons

Primary Canon (movie canon):
GB1 -> GB2 -> GB Game in OP

Secondary Canon (cartoon canon):
Real GB -> Extreme GB -> IDW

Tertiary Canon (shit canon):
GB 2016 -> nothing, timeline is dead

>>386911529
except that's wrong

>>386911529

IDW is a new canon set after the movies and the 2009 game (its events are referenced a few times, and the Rookie is a recurring character).

And fuck you, its not shitty at all.

>>386907205
It's a fun game, but its a nostalgia romp. they tread far too familiar ground with the content and you see everything you'd expect. the original ideas both succeed and fall flat. but the banter from characters is nice.

Just be prepared for REFERENCE REFERENCES REFERENCE and not so great console controls.

>>386908882
Sony has an animated Slimer movie too far into development to just stop and they are releasing a new GB Cartoon next year

>>386911151
not an argument

>>386911597
How is it wrong?

>>386911663
How is set after the movies when Kylie is in it?

Also the art is shitty. They all have weird monkey mouths.

Who would have guessed John Belushi would be starring in movies 40 years after death.

>>386911859
https://youtu.be/VrM7pPJL1IU?t=41s

>>386911860

Its an alternate Kylie. The events of the RGB and EGB cartoons never happened, Kylie is just a teen who works at Ray's book store and later became an official Ghostbuster. Eduardo sometimes pops up but has yet to do anything important, and Roland just debuted as a student in Ray's class for potential recruits. Garret is still MIA.

>>386911860
>How is it wrong?
It's been shown that the Extreme GB universe is separate as it had a cameo in "Get Real" the crossover comic between Real GB and the IDW versions.
>How is set after the movies when Kylie is in it?
Multiple dimensions dude. That's like...all the comics are about now and its awesome. How about you read the comics and stop talking out of your fucking ass.

>>386907205
It's the closest thing to Ghostbusters 3 that will ever happen.

>>386912154
>multiple dimensions

The lazy way of explaining it then. If Ramis and Akyroyd didn't write it then it's all non-canon as far as I'm concerned. They're the real authors of the series, not anyone else.

>>386912090
That's dumb. Garret was the best one.

I can recognize almost all of these except the upper and middle left. I'm guessing the lower right one is from Slimer! and why the Hulk Hogan one? Was there a crossover episode or something? Also i love the Ghostsmashers on the left

Is that Eddie Murphy in the top left? I remember seeing storyboards that originally had helmets for the uniform, and Murphy was suppose to be in it but they wanted to tone down the comedy and went with Hudson instead.

>>386913174

The one with the brown chick is that shitty game Sanctum of Slime. It had all OCs.

Under them is...I wanna say the Genesis game? But that might be them under the Zootfly guys, so I dunno.

People either say its awesome or garbage, no middle ground

So i really don't know.

Are the people who like it just nostalgia tripping or are people who hate it just not into ghostbusters?

>>386913316

Above the black text box? Thats either them or the cast of the cancelled reboot game from Zootfly.

Wasn't this supposed to have multiplayer coop? The PC version seems to lack it?

>>386907205
I really hope they remake this game one day with more photo realistic graphics,and have rick morranis come back to voice his character, which was going to happen after he saw how good the game was but came in to late

>>386913608
The Wii version does, at least.

>>386913608

>>386913316
>>386913420
It's the original version of the Ghostbusters pitched called the "Ghost Smashers". It involved them traveling between dimensions and fighting multiple Stay Puft sized ghosts as well as using wands that killed ghosts.

>>386913390
I wasn't very into Ghostbusters when I played it, still not, but I enjoyed it quite a bit.

>>386913316
Probably Murphy, Akroyd and Belushi. The original version of the script was supposed to tailored for the three of them.

>>386907828
I never got a proton pack, even though that clearly would be the best toy. Instead I had the trap, some retarded fucking contraption called the Ghost Grabber (which I'm assuming isn't canon), and a plastic PKE meter.

Dan said to consider it GB 3.

>fuckin obsessed with GB as a kid
>watched the movie every day, EVERY FUCKING DAY, after coming home from school
>still somehow never had the toys

I did have one Winston and one Egon but that was it. Not even a single ghost. I don't know how that happened.

people will give me shit for asking but are there any good lets plays of this? i dont feel like spending money and playing myself, would rather see someone do it justice. besides, seems the fun is in the characters and not the actual gameplay

>>386915138
People like you are the type to let someone else fuck your wife. I wish there was a word for that.

>>386914258
I had a bunch of toys. Ghosts, the firehouse, Ecto 1 and other vehicles. I could never get just the normal Ghostbusters. Every Ghostbuster I had was some variants. I don't believe they ever did reprints like Ninja Turtles had.

>>386915138
If you really have to ask that, at least watch a longplay. There is no point whatsoever in hearing some faggot comment on it.
