Ghostbusters Game Canceled?

Question

I heard that Activision wasn't going to publish the new Ghostbusters game. I have the game on hold at gamestop. I asked them if the game had been canceled and they said no. Then I got a call from gamestop that said that the game won't be coming out and that if I wanted to get my money back. That makes me think that the game won't see the light of day, but when I looked it up on the net all I can find is that the game has not been canceled. Does anyone know if Ghostbusters is going to come out at all or has it been canceled? I hope they don't cancel it. I've been looking forward to that game for a really long time

Answer 1

Activision has nothing to do with the game.  The game is being published by Sierra, and developed by Terminal Reality (PS3, 360, PC) and Red Fly Studio (DS, Wii, PS2).

According to Sierra's site, the game is scheduled for a fall 2008 release.

Answer 2

At the moment I think it's a case of wait and see...

Activision has said they aren't going to publish it, so it's a case of waiting to see who picks it up (and with it being a film license, there's probably quite a few details to sort out before whoever does pick it up can announce it).
