Snaileb sighting!
Also, you should totally let me borrow that when you're done. Or, just bring it over and let me play it.

It's confirmed by the developer that the PS3 and 360 versions are exactly identical. Hence, why I call it the PS360 version.
So it's good? Will it be worth the $60 after you finish it in 4 hours? Let us know via a post blog.

Just beat the first couple of levels and I couldn't help but smile the first time that theme song started playing.This game is actually really good so far.

Did you check that link though? I have the PS3 version and from looking at the pictures I can now confirm it's blurtastic... Just wondering if it's worth my time to go back to gamestop tomorrow to make an exchange...

Haha they even have the developer interview in the lens post, where they apparently blatantly lie about the PS3 version being the same.
Caught red handed! I still wouldn't say it's THAT bad though.

Yeah well this is the problem with owning both systems when multiplatform games come out, I never know which to pre-order the game for... I usually go with the lead platform and always end up with the best possible version of the game. But it seems I got screwed this time and I hate not having the best possible version so it's off to gamestop tomorrow, guess I'll just tell them my PS3 stopped working or something...
@ chronoswing
I wish they were the same... I really do.
I feel bad for you BUT
don't you, twice as much for me? PSWii Only.
SONY Pictures? 360 Version Better? WTF!!!

Ya know, usually I watch those comparason videos and go "whut? the difference is so miniscule" but watching the big HD version of that video...yikes. It's like they forgot to uprez. It's not like the ps3 is incapable of it.
I'm so glad this game is good. So glad. I've had high hopes for it and should have it this week.

Wow, after watching the head to head comparison I'm actually happy I got the 360 version of the game.

Just as an FYI, the IGN review of the game also hinted that the 360 version seemed to be a little visually above the PS3 version. Considering some of the limited rights Sony seemed to have over the title, it might be possible that the devs might have just been putting out a little bit of lip service?
Anyhoo, besides being a Ghostbusters game there really isnt anything that stands out too much about this game except that it's funny and a pretty solid title. It seems a tad on the rushed end, and the gameplay feels like it's a first gen PS3/360 title.. so its a tad dated. But considering I'm a huge Ghostbusters fan, was quoting the movie on the way to pick up the game, and then bought the movie on bluray, I can skip the faults.

I'm about halfway through the first level, or assuming I'm halfway through. My only complaint is the auto-saving checkpoints. There's a chance I may have missed it, but I wish there was some sort of icon that would pop up and inform you that the game was performing an auto-save. Did I miss it? Or does it just do it and not tell you?
I generally stick with the ps3 stuff for the free psn. Honestly, the graphics don't look that much worse on the ps3 version. But I enjoy replaying NES games and don't mind the widescreen/hd distortion, so a little less clean looking picture on something this gen doesn't matter much to me. I just want a solid game and if Ghostbusters is givin me that, then graphics be damned.
If you don't have to climb stairs of an apartment building while avoiding ghosts (ala the last level of the first game) it's okay with me. :)
I whole heartedly agree with how awesome this game is. I'm in the midst of the third level I believe, the library. The studio did a really good job. This is right up there with the Warriors from last gen as one of my favorite licensed games. It seems that licensed games work better on older properties. Maybe because the developers care more about the material, or that they aren't cheap cash-ins.
Couldn't agree more. From the opening sequence, to the music, through the first level I had a big smile on my face. Ghostbusters was a big part of my childhood, I watched the cartoon, had the figures, even played in the back yard at a friends house with the full size kids proton packs he had. What strikes me right off the bat is the dialogue, Ray and Egon sound perfect quoting all the science stuff back and forth. Winston...great, Peter...good, I can see this romance thing feeling forced between him and the chick in the game. It made me long for Ms. Dana Barret. But all in all I'm loving it.
Also got the PS3 version and to be honest it looks fine for me. If I had never saw the 360 version I wouldn't have complained at all, but as I saw it, yea its different.

I'm loving this game. I had to force myself to stop last night so I could get up at a reasonble hour this morning.
I have to finish prototype first but even then the PC version doesnt seem to be as good as the console.
At least on the reviews, maybe because is the lack of multiplayer... damn idiots they should release those games on STEAM.

I already bought Prototype and Red Faction... I'll have to pick this up later but I definitely will... I'm surprised that Ghostbusters turned out so nicely!
Nice initial impressions review!
... not my type of game (and I well remember the original movies), but this almost wants to make me pick it up!
