Personally, I see more of that happening then them fixing every little thing, yes, even Microsoft fixing their 360's before next year.

*Well that's the beauty of the internet: That's your opinion, as the former is mine. You have what you want changed or added, and I have my “list” of things as well…

*Just because that's what you want changed doesn't make it any less/more important than what I would like to see changed and vice/versa…

*And you're forgetting - “Graphics” are just as much a part of the experience as is the gameplay itself…There has to be a game you played in the past that you couldn't stand because of the graphics…

*And as such - I'm pretty sure if there was something you didn't like about the exisiting graphics as is, you'd post about it, just as I'm doing…Pictures or not - I'm sure you would. (*peter)

*Just because what I post isn't as popular as the majority of what has been posted, or isn't as much of a priority of the entire board itself, doesn't make it “less valid”…

*Cheers.

No more than them adding a “create-a-player” feature

Why not? there's already the suggestion of such a feature through the differing busters chasing Slimer in the game preview videos and screenshots.


The reason why the roof rack of the Ecto-1 differs so much is because it's been based on the replica car that was at Universal Studios Florida.

Ironically, that car has been bought by a fan and is now pretty much movie accurate.

Oh and Lanny, you forgot to include the ‘big rig’ style mirrors that Ecto-1 has inherited from her USF counterpart. :p, not to mention the blue cowl lights being coloured red, which can be seen in the screenshot of the car in the GI article.

I have to agree with Kingpin, at least on the PC/PS3/360 one having a create a character. I mean, you are playing a recruit character and not one of the four main guys, so I think that a create a character would have a good chance of being in.

Was just trying to illustrate a point. :p

I knew it…That's why I kept thinking about the “USF” Ectomobile…My question to them then would be "After such great attention to detail on the equipment and such , why use a replica of the car for reference, and not the real deal?"…

And this is as to why I point out stuff.

Again, thanks Ben

See? This is what I like to see - Constructive discussion on what I posted…

Not “Oh your wants are piddly”, or “Why complain about that when what I have to complain about or suggest is soooo much more relevant?” (*peter)

*Sorry - But that's the way alot of responses have seemed…

*Cheers.

Knowing Sony, they probably would'nt let them use the real car, I mean, Sony still hasn't released the Real Ghostbusters on DVD, so something tells me that they wouldn't let Terminal Reality base the car in the game off of the real car.

I don't get what the harm in that is. They let the packs look like the movie, and everyone else, but not the ecto-1? What's up with that?

VERY doubtful. They're using everything else, its very doubtful they wouldn't release the Ecto-1 too. Like Kingpin said, there've been reports that they based this off of the USF Ecto-1, and that is the most likely reason for the difference.

Its true, but then why won't they use the real Ecto-1 for reference instead of the Universal Ecto-1?

Because the real Ecto-1 is undergoing restoration right now, and they probably just figured it was close enough for now. Remember, the images aren't final.
