Game company Atari has officially announced what many have suspected for a while, they are going to be publishing the new video game based on the "Ghostbusters" movies. Ghostbusters: The Video Game was left without a publisher after the Vivendi-Activision merger and has finally officially landed a publisher. Atari has set a release window of "early summer 2009." Which will coincide with the 25th anniversary of the first film. (Which is June 8, 2009 to be exact) Gamestop has set a release date of June 16th which seems reasonable since it is a Tuesday (and also happens to be the 20th anniversary of Ghostbusters II) But Atari has not confirmed that date so it is most likely speculation in the part of Gamestop.
In other news, Gears of War 2 sold 2.1 million copies on its opening day (last Friday) and is expected to reach 3.5 million by this Friday. These numbers put it into an elite group of AAA game titles like Halo 3. This bodes well for the franchise and the possible Gears of War 3 that I am already waiting for.
