No, canned by Activision, picked up by Atari. It's still coming out.

Sorry, it's just it's useful for search purposes. Also, for people who are at work and can't watch videos, etc.

Just hope Atari doesn't give it the shite-Midas touch. Alone in the Dark and Legendary are fucking terrible.

Thank christ for that. Someone who looked round the house before we bought it told us they thought it was haunted. "Friendly" ghosts, she reckoned, but we all know what *that* means. First it's moving cups around and then it's getting all ectoplasmic with your wife.

No, it was someone we met after we moved in. It was Ruth's first midwife for Second Born, who she sacked very quickly for reasons I'm assuming I needn't spell out.

For what it's worth, I've got no plans on ectoplasming your wife.

That's because you haven't met her. And, more importantly, MrsA hasn't.

MrsA is about to get cross with me when "picking her up at the station" means my walking down there to meet her, rather than taking the car.

That, and I fancy a beer.

I genuinely appreciate the occasional view into the MaliA domestic situation which the little glowing window on my desk affords me. However, could you move a bit to the left as MrsA's bottom end is always out of shot.

They should just remake that version for the Wii. Use the Wii remote as part of the proton pack and every time you catch a ghost, the blue message light on the Wii could start to glow ;)

I watched a 'Let's Play' video of the old Master System game on Youtube. The creator mercifully plays music from the movie soundtrack after three minutes, saying the tinny rendition of the theme (which plays constantly throughout the game) has been sufficiently experienced by that point.

And when you turn the Wii off, all the ghosts escape and wreak havoc across the city? I don't think Nintendo would appreciate that kind of publicity. ;)

Oh good, I was hoping that would be the case.

Having said that, how do NTSC games play on PAL 360s?

As far as I am aware, exactly the same as if it were a PAL game, except maybe no localisation for other European languages.


Also, I think counts as a lolsony moment.

What LewP said. The Smackdown vs Raw Uk releases are NTSC, for instance. Look on the back of the boxes, most say if they are.

It's not an issue unless you have a CRT TV that doesn't do 60Hz.

Destructoid have apparently confirmed with Atari that it'll be region-free, so I've put in a pre-order at http://www.videogamesplus.ca for the game.

A grand total of £42.50 delivered, unless the exchange rate fucks me over within the next 6 days.

Most SD 360 games seem to be 60hz only anyway.
