I don’t know why, but I have a really strange feeling that this “Alyssa” character might turn out to be…well not who/what she seems to be (not that we really know all that much about her in the first place), but considering what happened with Dana/Zuul in GB 1, I wonder if there could be something similar to that here. Maybe she is get’s possesed/used by the spirite of [Ivo Shandor](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/ivo-shandor) in an attempt to get close to the GBs so he can destroy them once and for all? IDK. ■■■■! I hope I’m wrong about this, cause’ if not, I just (unwittingly) gave away the WHOLE reason that Atari has been so “secretive” about the game, and what particular info they release. Damn! Note: No I do not have any “advanced” info about the plot of the game (or anything else about it, for that matter), this was just something I thought about after seeing the recent new videos/screenshots. ---

Well aside from being my daughter’s name 🆒 I would have to agree I think there is some plot point they will make with her in the game. ---

Good find. Just enough to tease and not give away too much of the plot. Some nice clips of the cut-scenes on both versions there as well! ---

So she is the love interest of Venkman. Makes sense, Dana and Peter could never stay together. They fall in love during crazy paranormal events, but imagine them together during day to day life. I do hope Dana is mentioned though. ---

Interesting… She may have said that, but a new [Variety](http://www.variety.com/article/VR1118001481.html) article also says “Ilyssa”. Great video, a nice shot of the Wii Firehouse engine bay, confirmation that Ilyssa was the beautiful girl Venkman passes a chat up line to at the Hotel before going after [Slimer](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/characters/slimer) and as GhstbstrLMLIII. some nice bits of footage of the Wii. And that bit where the others come into the room? Hysterical. 🙂 ---

Honestly how anyone can accuse Murray of not putting any effort into his performance is just :sigh: What about “I get up for girls that _get_ up!” :lol: I’m almost positive that’s not a written line and one he made up himself. ---

Everything i have seen with Bill is great, I think the demo was awkward because it was him by himself with no one to play off. These new seems are awesome! I need this game bad. ---

Did anyone else notice her initials? I.S, Ilyssa Selwyn, kind of funny that she has the same initials as [Ivo Shandor](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/ivo-shandor). Maybe she is one of his descendants? It could happen! 🆒 Plus! She’s adopted, which makes it that much more of a possibility. ---

Calm down, calm down. Selwyn is not her real name. Selwyn is her adopted parents’ last name. Rockstar232007 is still probably right but this adds about 20% more doubt to it. At least that’s what I’m telling myself 😉 ---

the shandor thing works pretty well seeing as she is at the center of all of this and her college education was assisted by the shandor foundation
