ZootFly backs off from Ghostbusters game

All references removed to 360 game and YouTube videos taken down at the request of Sony Pictures, dev tells CVG
The recently released Ghostbusters movies from an early-in-development Xbox 360 game have been pulled off the web at the request of Sony Pictures Entertainment.

All references to the game have also bee removed from ZootFly's website. When trying to track down the videos, YouTube greets you with, "This video has been removed at the request of copyright owner Sony Pictures Entertainment because its content was used without permission." Whoops...

CVG contacted the developer and was told that the videos were indeed removed at the request of Sony Pictures and all references to the game have been removed from its website while negotiations over the rights continue behind closed doors. Fingers crossed Sony doesn't pull the plug, it was looking good.

No i just think PS3 will be the best out of the three! and to be fair you 360 fanboys slag off the PS3 every chance you get! don't dish it if you can't take it! Oh and i can't wait for this game to come out on the PS3 looked like a AAA title shame you 360 Zelots won't be playing it! Wink

I think so too. If your not English_Crusader you seriously need to contact sony and get on their pay role.

The PS3 will probably be a nice system eventually. I have few doubts about that. But not until the price comes down and its proven itself to be ACTUALLY more capable than the 360 and not just potentially.

When that happens ill get one. And when will that be?

A year?

Two Years?

Ever? Rolling Eyes

I've gotta say, I've only seen a few of his posts around, and I'd always assumed he was being paid to post what he did.

Either that, or he's some sort of masochist...

ROFL I love the fact people think i work for Sony!!! Just because i look forward to the PS3 Rolling Eyes

Why are you lot attacking English_Crusader, if he is looking forward to the PS3 let him. With all the Sony bashing going around Xbox 360 needs to take some comments. Sony's track record of current isn't brilliant but there is a lot of time for the PS3 to prove itself. Xbox 360 is no where near prefect, but at least Sony is trying. I say just wait and see. But about the article it does smell like sony is going to try and get something out of this.

At a danger of being called a nerd...

It's proton streams, therefore "Don't cross the streams!"

and..
Doh ----Ray-----Me-----Egon Laughing

The word "Me" was never used as there were only 3 Ghostbusters present at the time. So really that should be...

Peter Venkman: "Doh"
Ray Stantz: "Ray"
Egon Spengler: "Egon"

Ok, I'll shut up now. Embarassed

Really? Winston Zeddmore wasn't in that scene?

..could have sworn he was... I dunno maybe everyone is right, maybe it IS me getting old... maybe I did put my wallet in the fridge and that block of lard in my purse.... OH GOD MY HOUSE IS ON FIRE AGAIN!
bforbosker on 25 Jan '07
No, for some reason I can't remember Winston wasn't in the court room in the second film.

I was so into Ghostbusters when I was a kid. It's a pity it looks like it's gonna be dropped now. Crying or Very sad
Crow555 on 25 Jan '07
Winston didnt dig the road up with the other guys so didnt get busted by cops
