Ghostbusters the game xbox 360 & sony are rotters!

Can I just say, I don’t know if anyone else has said it yet, but, the fact that sony have used ‘time release’ on the game (in europe) and seemingly held back the xbox version by like 4 months is a rip off & a freaking pain in the behind… clearly on their part a wise choice, 'cause I straight away considered buying a ps3, but, I personally consider the ps3 a bit rubbish in comparison to my much loved xbox…

So, now I’m left with a choice spend £300 on a ps3 just for gb, wait or try to import a copy, I hear the north american version is non region exclusive… If ne one knows where such a thing might be possible (an import) then please let me know, I’m gagging to play the game…

But that aside, I’m really disapointed that the guys and columbia have let this happen to the franchise, I mean, it’s not like aykroyd or ramis to say *‘■■■■ these guys, they can wait, it doesn’t matter if they’ve waited for their whole life to experience this shit, we’ll just line sonys pockets for fun! let the xboxers have it , when every one else has had their fun with it!’ *

I can see the whole tie in with the blu ray thing and the re-release of the movie, also, the fact that a shed load of folks will buy a ps3 just for gb, I’m hoping to gozer I don’t break… However, if the game can be released on xbox next week in usa, then it should be released next week here in the uk!

If i’m wrong please put me right, I’m going to gutted if I can’t play gb next week…

Cheers for reading my musings… John =]

You should’ve been here when we found out about it.

Being region free the game should play without incident on PAL 360s, please don’t pay £300 unless you really feel the need to do so.

They have no choice in the matter, Sony, being the bankroller behind the game has the final say in it. Dan, Harold and co wouldn’t be able to change it. Thankfully we’ll be able to get around it.

Thanks for the quick reply… May I ask, do you know a place where I can order a copy, I saw ‘play asia’ being quoted… is that a reputable company, I presume it’s literally play.com asia…but it’s good to ask..anyothers I should try?

Your view on the matter is very misguided.

I might consider selling the Xbox360 version here on the site.. but I am not sure if the demand will be there.

Well, I don’t about misguided, but, it’s a whole lot of new information to take in reasonably late in proceedings… So, I’ve ordered mine from Play-asia… it coast £54 with postage 1-4 days… and hopefully it’ll work…think a daily check on forum update is needed untill we have release…lol we’ll look back and laugh in ten years… Thanks for your help everybody! =]
