Atari has announced that Ghostbusters: The Video Game is now available for just about every gaming platform. There's even an Amazon exclusive "Slimer Edition" for fans who want a little Ghostbusters nostalgia packed with their game. It includes exclusive items such as a Slimer bust designed by the original movie sculptor, Steve Johnson, Ghostbusters Gamer Graffix Skins and an exclusive (in the US) Ecto1 key chain that lights up and makes a siren sound.

Details on Ghostbusters: The Video Game from Atari:
"Working closely with Sony Pictures Consumer Products and acclaimed development studios Terminal Reality and RedFly, Atari brings this completely all-new chapter of the blockbuster Ghostbusters saga to advanced gaming platforms coinciding with the 25th Anniversary celebration of the film’s original theatrical release. Ghostbusters: The Video Game, based on the smash hit motion picture franchise, is penned by original Ghostbusters writers and stars Harold Ramis and Dan Aykroyd and reunites many of the original cast members. In addition, the game also launches today along with Sony Pictures Home Entertainment’s worldwide debut of the original motional picture on Blu-ray Disc.

In addition to Aykroyd and Ramis, original Ghostbusters Bill Murray, and Ernie Hudson, and new love interest, Alyssa Milano, lend their voices and in-game likenesses to the original story set two years after Ghostbusters 2, with Manhattan once again overrun by ghosts and supernatural forces. The player joins up as a new recruit with the original team, testing a variety of unique equipment and gadgets, to track, wrangle and trap a wide range of awe-inspiring phantasms in an all-new, funny and frightening battle to save New York City from its latest paranormal plague."
