Okay anyone that has read through the forums or has read the game informer magazine know that the car will not be drivable yet important in the game some how so i was wondering. If anyone has a idea on how it ties in :-) or wants to rant about how you won't be able to drive it. :-@ This is the thread to do it under.

I've read somewhere that there will be a level in it where you have to shoot ghosts while the car is driving.

Best regards,

Yep, thats what I read as well, you're shooting ghost while the cars driving. Guess you got to protect it from taking to much damage. I don't mind that, as long as the Ecto-1 gets some use.

Thats cool. Long as its in it. It would be nice during mutliplayer…you could fight ecto vs ecto.

Im pretty sure that the ecto wouldnt really fit into what Sierra looks like they have in mind with the multiplayer but damn that would be great. bBut im with you guys as long as shes in it I'm happy. You cant bust ghosts without the ecto lol even Ataris version had it.

Hmm, Damage meter, that'll explain why they modeled the cars Engine as well (Hood blown off, perhaps?)

So far what we know is that the sequence where you defend Ecto-1 its being driven toward Times Square for a as-yet unknown reason.

It's unfortunate that you can't drive the car, but unfortunately we have to assume they have a decent reason for making the car a on-rails element.

Would've been nice if it would've been used as GTA. Be able to get in and out of the car, drive it around New York and be able to walk into any place and voila……ghost catchin time….Different missions; different ghosts; different places and the Ecto able to get you there

Yeah, and big repairs each time because it will fall apart just touching the streets :-)

It would be awesome, but I'd imagine that GTA-like games take more work to make than the average game, and perhaps you might say they take a lot more work to be done right. If this GB game does well enough, maybe we could hope for a sequel with free roaming capabilities.
