Over one million new Ghostbusters recruits in North America

Jul 28, 2009 Posted Under: atari, ghostbusters, redfly, terminal-reality

Since its June 16 release, Ghostbusters: The Video Game has managed to sell over one million copies in North America across all platforms. That’s a pretty big deal, doubly so for Atari, a company in dire need of some success. We can’t imagine what kind of hot water the company would be in if it couldn’t recoup some of that $15 – $20 million it cost to develop the game.

Non-Sony Ghostbusters releases dated in Europe

Namco Bandai partners has announced that Ghostbusters will officially arrive on European Wii, DS and Xbox 360 consoles (and PCs) on October 23, according to VideoGamer.com. Thus far, the game has only been officially available for the PS3 and PS2 thanks to its initial European publisher, Sony. That said, the North American Xbox 360 version is reportedly not region-locked, allowing European gamers to import the title.

Still, for Nintendo and Xbox players longing for what Play Magazine calls the “best damn Ghostbusters game [they've] ever seen” (as opposed to the vastly superior version we were hoping for), the wait is going to be just a bit longer.
