Ghostbusters crosses retail streams June 2009

Atari has officially announced that Ghostbusters will be hitting every console under the sun in June 2009. Having been in publishing limbo after Activision merged with Vivendi earlier this year, Atari announced its plans to publish the title last month. The game is set for a simultaneous release on Xbox 360, PS3, Wii, DS, PS2 and PC. Of course, all we really care about is whether or not the game is any good. Let's hope so (we're sure Atari is).

Head over to Big Download for a recent hands-on preview of the game.

I think it looks great honestly and it looks even better in motion. I'm glad someone picked it up.

If it's how I imagined it from the first screens, it will be awesome. But I guess I shouldn't get my hopes up.

I thought the controls for the Wii version would be perfect, but I would rather get the less-cartoony Xbox version.

I still think it would be great if they implemented the 360 cam like rainbow six vegas and you could stick your own face on your ghostbuster.

Cannot wait!

Guaranteed pre-order for me.

I played both the 360 & PS3 demos at SDCC and the game was fun! I CANNOT BELIEVE I HAVE TO WAIT ANOTHER 6 MONTHS!!

Well its got potential.

Though Atari isn't necessarily number one on my radar for great games anymore... Let us just hope that they don't botch it now that they taken over the right to it.

Well keep in mind that Atari is just publishing the game, they are not really involved with it's development so don't let the name scare you off..

But they also picked up Chronicles of Riddick: Assault on Dark Athena so that's pretty awesome, I hope both are big sellers... It would be weird to think of a gaming would without Atari..
