Reports have been circulating the Net about how the PlayStation 3 version of Ghostbusters: The Video Game appears to be lackluster compared to the Xbox 360 version. Richard Leadbetter, Director of HD consultancy Digital Foundry and author of Eurogamer's Face-off features, described it as "time-warping back to the dawn of PS3 development." Today, we have Terminal Reality, the developer of the PS3 version, setting the record straight as to why the PS3 version looks softer. Yes, he's got quite some explaining to do.

Sure, to finally be able to fry ghosts with your proton pack in Ghostbusters: The Video Game (Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, Wii, DS, PC, PSP) is fun in itself, but that doesn't mean we're not getting a few bonuses for doing so, right? Adding more fun to what's already fun is just sweet, sweet icing on the cake, yes? For that, here are the Trophies and Achievements for Ghostbusters: The Video Game.

A recent product listing on UK online retailer ShopTo indicates that the upcoming Blu-ray release of the original Ghostbusters movie will include a demo for Atari's game. Though the listing is for the UK version of the Blu-ray disc, we do have confirmation that this will not be the case for North America. Atari US has already blasted the rumor into itty-bitty ectoplasmic bits.

Ghostbusters fansite Proton Charging reports that PS3 users will be getting some Ghostbusters-themed content on PlayStation Home. The official press release isn't out yet, but Sony has apparently confirmed it.

Just like the opening sequence of a movie, the opening cinematic for Ghostbusters: The Video Game (Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, Wii, DS, PC) makes you all hyped up to see the rest of it. Unfortunately, we have to wait a few more months for that. As it is, let's just spend a chilling night at the museum and get a sneak peek of what our boys are gonna be taking on when the game comes out.

If you're that into Ghostbusters, then you'd best be on the lookout for the up and coming Ghostbusters Slimer Edition collectibles from Amazon. It's a good merchandising campaign, too, what with the impending arrival of Ghostbusters: The Video Game (Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, DS, Wii, PC).

Defeating a marshmallow man probably doesn't match up to facing down the Locust Hord, but it does give you points. In fact, the Ghostbusters video game will be like Gears of War "Lite," says the game's producer, Garrett Moehring.

Time to board the Ecto-1, we're hunting ghosts! There's now some confirmation that Atari plans to release a PSN and XBL demo for Ghostbusters this June. No specific date for the demo yet, but the game gets released on the 16th of that month - the demo could come in within a week or two from that. My guess is it'll go live on June 8. Why? Because it's my birthday. No really, it is! (Oh, and the Ghostbusters movie's birthday too.)

Who ya gonna call? Apparently, PlayStaion Universe called Terminal Reality executive producer Brendan Goss. Just a little checkup on how development is coming along for the upcoming Ghostbusters: The Video Game (PS3, Xbox 360, Wii, DS). More in the full article.

So why wasn't Ghostbusters: The Video Game developed earlier? That's because the devs at Terminal Reality were stalling! (Good things come to those who wait, yes?) As it turns out, they were waiting for some good hardware that could deliver what they felt would "do the game justice." Good hardware? Wasn't this what Kaz Hirai was just talking about the other day?
