The Library level would also make room for a wider demonstration of physics objects and different kinds of enemies, but I still think it would be overload and wouldn't leave the masses wanting more. I also think you need to hook them in with the ballroom scene. Give them something to remember how great Ghostbusters is while they “LIVE” the experience.

(I just noticed I keep spelling Sedgwick wrong. What kind of fan am I?)

That is interesting. The library is actually the first scene in the movie and probably the scariest part in the GB movie, but the Sedgwick is actually the first time we see them in full gear.

I don't see it as being “which one is more memorable to fans and non-fans” because anyone who has seen the movie can say that those two locations are indeed the most memorable out of the whole movies. (Note: Since they both in the game and the movie while other scenes are not)

Grey Lady was the first ghost they ever hunted and their first contact with ghosts, while Slimer was their first successful capture.

As I said, logically the Sedgwick hotel is short, sweet, to the point and can be recognized which is perfect for a demo, but I wish to play the library level if I could in the demo. (Before the game comes out I mean)

To think about this though, in the library demo you have so much more to do and practice with. I mean you fight a gollum and one ghost. the Sedgwick, you fight one ghost and is a little short if you immediately go into trying to capture Slimer.

I don't know, I prefer the library demo cause it is more….versatile. I am looking at it from both a gamer and a fan point of view (If you weren't a fan, this game wouldn't really matter much.)

If you weren't a fan, this game wouldn't really matter much.

Not necessarily. It's like Dan said: “Hopefully this game will do exactly what the first movie did in the '80s, by indtroduceing a WHOLE new generation to GBs”.(*peter)

Yeah “Hopefully.” Didn't say it would. There is a difference between someone who hasn't seen Ghostbusters to someone who is not a fan of Ghostbusters. No one can say it would change someone's opinion about the Ghostbusters if they hated the franchise in the first place. I know some people out there who hate the movies or are not even interested at all.

I doubt the game who changed their opinions like that. Maybe some of them, but it won't be a world wide epidemic like that.

It could create a whole new fan base which could do two things for Ghostbusters. It could renew the spirit….or it could destroy it completely. Basically just ruin it which has happened to stuff from the past brought to the present.

I'm not necessarily talking about the game, turning anybody that isn't a fan, into one, but rather, the game play aspect (Graphics, general GP, and the all around creepiness) of the game, appealing to them, and in-turn, causing them to like it. And as far as, stuff being brought from the past and being ruined? GBs isn't really being brought from the past, because nobody ever really forgot about it. Plus! the things that do “ruin” anything that is brought back are, remakes! and GB:TVG isn't a remake/retelling, so it should/will be fine.

But….that is not what he meant. That is just making an excuse for him to explain a possible third outcome that is the least likely to happen only to prove him not to be wrong.

The fan you described is what we like to call….“a gamer.” Which is not what we are referring to. Chances are over 3/4ths of us here are gamers, if not all. (Graphics, general GP, and the all around creepiness)

I don't think this game will make a non-gamer into a gamer.

No no, what I meant is turning a Non-Ghostbuster fan into a Ghostbuster fan which is the most likely the scenario. I told one friend of mine who hasn't scene Ghostbusters to get the game. How? I told him like you said, I told him about the game play and the dialogue and everything else. He told me if the game is good, he will watch the movies. So I might have converted someone into a fan of GB.

This is what Dan Aykroyd said too.

Thanks for ‘splaning, cause’ I totally missed your point. (*peter)

Maybe Skankerzero can clarify for us what demo we will be getting since he probably knows if no one has asked him already..?(*egon)

rockstar232007;143909
I'm actually hoping that it will be the ARC building/Stay-Puft level. But that's just me.(*peter)

he wont say. im sure he's not allowed to say. if he can tell us what demo its gonna be then he could tell when its gonna be available and thats not happening…

Skanker went insane a few days ago, HE asked US when the game was comeing out…

Skanker is no more…

He ceased to be…

He is an ex developer…
