Red Fly defends Wii, PS2 versions of Ghostbusters

With the revelation that a new Ghostbusters experience would be making its way to the Wii, many a fan of Nintendo's newest console found themselves incredibly excited. And, for good reason, because if there's any game that could make good use of the Wiimote, it would be a well-done Ghostbusters game. But, all would not be as we hoped it would be.

The Wii version of the game, compared to the Xbox 360 and PS3 versions, would be more of a family-friendly title with cartoonish graphics and a local multiplayer emphasis on the gameplay. Essentially dumbed down for the Wii, many of those same enthusiastic folks found themselves upset that they weren't getting the same experience. You could count us among them.

Red Fly doesn't want us to be alarmed, however. They argue that the Wii version of the game isn't just a "down-port of the Xbox 360 version of the game," but a "unique experience" that will "make you feel like a Ghostbuster when you play." We hope so, because the Wii version of the game is just aching to be amazing.
