Game Informer has stated that the Wii version of Ghostbusters will have a cartoony look to it, as opposed to the darker look of the 360 & PS3 versions. I look at RE4 and the early footage of Ghostbusters and wonder - WHY are they making it look cartoony??

The PS3 and 360 versions are dark?

The ghostbusters movies are comedies with Bill Murray (who's great by the way). Why are they making the games dark?

When I first heard of the game, I thought all versions would be cartoony anyway. >_>

Mario? Yeah, I won another Mansion. No no, there's absolutely 0% chance that this one is haunted.

Listen, I need to pick up something at the store, you go on ahead, I'll meet you there.

Well of course. Half the cows and lems are too uncomfortable with their musculinity that they can't play games where you don't blow someone's head up.

One of the guys was black? That's banged up because in the real-time movie had all white guys. The entertainment industry can't make up their minds.

They have to pull through with the "art direction"

in order to compensate for the weak, outdated hardware.

in this case, I dont think its gonna pull through very well.

That's too bad. I hope they at least keep the atmosphere a little lighter. Ghostbusters was never a franchise that was meant to be taken too seriously.

You know, if they made it look like the cartoon, I would definitely be more happy with that. I grew up watching it and it was one of my favorite cartoon shows :)

I'm pretty certain that this version of Ghostbusters has been cancelled.

360/PS3 fanboys are incapable of not taking games too seriously.

Ha! I loved Ecto Cooler too. At least until you let it sit out for a few days and it grew a skin.

Unless the story in the game is dark and devoid of humor, I don't think a dark art sty1e would fit the game at all. The Ghostbusters movies were comedies, not horror films. We're talking about a movie that featured a giant marshmallow man terrorizing a city that was manifested by a naked chick covered in ice.

I would rather it be upbeat and cartoony than dark. I don't want another great franchise ruined because some people can't handle playing a game where you don't kill, rape, or mame.

In that case, I'm going to have to perfer the Wii version. Unless you're some 14-year old prepubescent boywho never happened to watch the Ghostbusters movies, then you're going to want the Ghostbusters as they always were. The movies were comedies so I don't see why they'd want to make it all "dark" and "serious".

The PS3 and 360 versions are dark?

The ghostbusters movies are comedies with Bill Murray (who's great by the way). Why are they making the games dark?

mattbbpl

Exactly, that's what i was going to say who wants a comedy turned into a dark, serious game. It was made as a comedy with 3 comedic actors

and to be honest i was looking at the pics in game informer and really prefer the way the cartoony look turned out...it reminds me of the characters in The Orange Box's Team Fortress 2 characters.

I love that look and it will , i'm sure look more humorous as it should've been on all 3 consoles.

The Wii can do nothing but cartoony graphics. It just can't do much with the hardware.

If Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter were to go to the Wii, they would either downgrade the graphics a lot until it looked like PS2 models, or just go for a cartoony BWII type look, to hide the fact the Wii falls short tech wise.

It can look dark without being themed that way. The story and the characters can still be funny even if the game looks like GEoW. Hell, the movies had a somewhat dark visual to them.


The Wii version being cartoony is obviously so that it doesn't look crap compared to the PS3/360 versions.

The "Extreme Ghostbusters" cartoon series was kinda dark but still got the humor. I preferred that one over the others.
