Franchise: Ghostbusters. Share Embed. Add to Cart. And then there's Ghostbusters the Video Game, which seems to have come along at just the right time. Ghostbusters Remastered is not Hellbent, and I obviously don't know what it shares with the other unmade scripts: It seems fair to speculate that the latter part of the game is inspired by some of these ideas. But what is special about it is that, Rick Moranis and Sigourney Weaver aside, all of the original cast reprise their roles.
This comes with the smart decision to make the player part of the team, but not one of the original team: an anonymous, mute rookie. Ghostbusters was always about the team: Stantz and Spengler riffing on intellectual phantasmagoria, while Venkman and Zeddmore believed but lived more in the real world. Perhaps this seems like over-thinking something like Ghostbusters. Here's a making-of documentary where Akroyd and Ramis discuss the game, and what is abundantly clear is that they cared about it.
The perception was always that Bill Murray would never do another Ghostbusters… but he did this. Next year's Ghostbusters: Afterlife looks to be constructed around Egon's legacy, and perhaps with some digital trickery we'll see Ramis's ghost, and that could be nice.
But Ghostbusters Remastered is both a love-letter to the movies, and the final time the Ghostbusters rolled-out as the original four-piece. The aptly titled Ghostbusters: The Video Game stands as, arguably, one of the best pieces of licensed software to ever arrive on the Xbox and PlayStation 3.
What made this game so fantastic for fans, however, was the fact that the four core members of the original cast had reprised their roles. Not stopping there, William Atherton, Brian Doyle-Murray, and Annie Potts all returned to voice their respective characters from the Ghostbusters movies as well.
This fan service already gives the video game adaptation an edge on Ghostbusters 3 , as there currently is not a single member of the original cast confirmed to make their return for the sequel. Of course, the inclusion of the original Ghostbusters actors in Ghostbusters 3 may change, but the big advantage the game will always have over the new movie is that it included Spengler actor Harold Ramis, who sadly passed away in Tragically, Ghostbusters 3 will have to continue on without the beloved brainiac Spengler.
But Ghostbusters: The Video Game went further than just reuniting the original cast as a marketing tactic. The script for the game was doctored by Aykroyd and Ramis who both wrote the original Ghostbusters movies , and the end result was a Ghostbusters adventure through and through.
