Lol…the cartoons created ECTO-2 and 3; ECTO-4 was in the Now Comic series.

I could swear Ray calls it Ecto-8 though. Granted, usually when he tells me he's pulling back in the boat, Im usually just dodging that runaway mine car. Maybe Im just missing him saying H instead 8 with all the racket. I still could swear he says 8 though.

ANd yeah, I remember that little unicycle sidecar Ray rode called Ecto-3. Heck, I remember the Ecto-500. (it was some kinda race car with long extendable grabber hoses on the hood.) Perhaps its that from my childhood that made me think he said a number instead of a letter.


No, I'm pretty sure he says Ecto-8.

I wish I could have helped you on that level man, but im expecting my notice from Xbox to coem tomorrow and then once I send off my 360 to be repaired, I'll probably be in the same boat once I start playing the PS2 version to tide me over until my 360 gets back from the shop repaired.

Whether he says Ecto- H or Ecto- 8 the subtitles say Ecto-8

Ecto-3 was also the toy go-cart, just FYI.

So, okay, if we're going to run with this…

We'd count ECTO-500 as ECTO-5, the Ghost Sweeper as the ECTO-6, and the Ecto-Bomber as the ECTO-7. See? Now it works!*:-)(^_^)



*–This is all a joke, of course, before the movie purists start raining fire and brimstone on me.

It IS Ecto-H, not Ecto-8. Y'all need to listen better.

Learn to read.

I had the subtitles on and he specifically said “ECTO-Eight” not “ECTO-H.” Even during the times when it was quieter, I could hear him say “Eight”, not “H.”

it's refered to as ecto-8 in the official game guide as well.
