Activision Blizzard still 'reviewing' fate of Ghostbusters

For those of us who enjoyed unprecedented levels of excitement at the announcement of a Ghostbusters game, it's been a rocky ride ever since. First, we heard it was canceled, then the Terminal Reality boss said it would be published. Now, we just don't know what's up.

The recently-merged Activision Blizzard doesn't know what's up, either. That's why they're still considering what to do with the game and "reviewing its options regarding titles that it will not be publishing." This means that should the company decide not to publish the game, it could be sold off to another publisher. Either way, we just want to see it release.

I'm still jazzed at the idea of using my Wiimote as a Ghostbuster Beam. There's so much potential for funny and entertaining gameplay. Hell, they could just ripoff the old cartoon and release new gamepacks as DLC or $10 discs in stores.
