Which version of Ghostbusters is the best?
Well, the Wii version is all kiddie-fied. The PC version has no multiplayer. So that comes down to the Xbox 360 and PS3 versions, right? Joystiq details the mounting case that the PS3 version is clearly inferior, with a rather daming comment from Ghostbusters developer Terminal Reality:For the record, the PS3 version [of Ghostbusters] is softer due to the 'quincunx' antialiasing filter and the fact we render at about 75% the resolution of the 360 version. So you cannot directly compare a screen shot of one to the other unless you scale them properly. The PS3 does have less available RAM than the 360 - but we managed to squeeze 3 out of 4 textures as full size on the PS3.
Joystiq pours a little salt in the wound by pointing out that the publisher of the game in Europe, as well as the owner of the Ghostbusters franchise, is none other than Sony.

The Xbox 360 does what the Playstation 3 don't. It's all that blast processing!

Tom, seriously, how the hell am I am supposed to assign you a bias if you keep waffling between pro-Sony and anti-Sony news? Think of the GAFfers, please.

I wouldn't worry about the Gaffers, obonicus. They'll find something to flame about. They always do. We'll see where this thread goes.

Yay! I heart my 360.
But ya gotta admit, the Wii co-op campaign *does* sound cool.

just let the little playstation have their little bit better grafix and ego. if xbox complains, tell them..their's has better multiplayer. life's too short to quibble over who has a few more pixels or colors or ram, especially when it all looks the same.

Something tells me you didn't read the whole article, budgethero.

PC wins over them all. Gets it for 29.99 instead of having to pay for a useless tacked on multiplayer mode, and still gets the epic singleplayer story and game.

they say the wii is kiddiefied, stfw.It's Nintendo, it's always been that way. Personally,being 30 and having young ones, I appreciate the childish ease that games tend to have on the wii. If u want the game to be a little more challenging turn the difficulty up. otherwise shut up and play a PS3 or 360
