Trivia
The Ghostbusters' theme is never fully played during the game, not even during the final credits of the realistic version (PS3/X360/PC). It is played in full during the end credits of the stylized version (Wii/PS2).

This was never mentioned in the previous two movies, but according to the Prima Player's guide for the game, Winston Zeddemore used to be in the Marine Corps.

Dana Barrett was originally in the script, but Sigourney Weaver turned down the offer to play the role. However, Weaver changed her mind when the rest of the films cast, including Bill Murray, were signed on, but by that time, Dana had been written out and the part had been rewritten as Dr. Ilyssa Selwyn (played by Alyssa Milano).

When driving to Times Square, Ray remarks on how nice it was "after urban renewal". The urban renewal didn't even start until Rudy Giuliani became mayor in 1994, three years after the game takes place. (PC/PS3/X360 version only.)

The so-called "Grey lady" has been bright purple every time she has been seen. Why would she be dubbed "the Grey lady"? Because "grey lady" is a common paranormalist term for an elderly female ghost, regardless of the coloration of the apparition.

The game takes place in 1991, yet the World Trade Center towers are not present in the skyline of downtown Manhattan in the game's opening cinematic. (PC/PS3/X360 version only)

Q
How do you get the PC version to install properly?
A
An overwhelming percentage of the people who bought the PC version of Ghostbusters: The Video Game have had trouble getting it to install, to the point of many considering sueing Atari. The simple solution is NOT to do a custom install. Install it to the default directory and everything should be fine.Some have also suggested, if the above doesn't work the first time, turning off your antivirus software before restarting the installation process (unlike a few other games out there, the instruction booklet for this game makes no mention of this). The game should load normally after doing this.
Q
Do the PC and stylized versions have the multiplayer mode?
A
The PC, PlayStation 2, DS, and PSP versions do not have any multiplayer features at all. The Xbox 360 and PlayStation3 versions have online multiplayer, while the Wii has local split-screen multiplayer.
Q
Do you need an Xbox 360 controller or a similar gamepad in order to play the PC version? Does it even support one?
A
The Xbox 360 controller is supported (and prefered) by the PC version, but it isn't required for gameplay, since the keyboard and mouse work too. Personally, having tried both input methods, I find gameplay to be far easier using the 360 controller (it lets you play an increasing number of PC games--Fable: The Lost Chapters is, to my knowledge, the earliest of these-- with ease from across your living room, den, or bedroom, wherever your gaming machine happens to be. In addition, as far as this game is concerned, it is all but impossible to aim the equipment, and wrangle the ghosts into the traps, using the mouse.), but not everybody is cut out for using a gamepad. If you happen to be one of those who can't use a gamepad to save your life (like my youngest sister), you'd be better off either avoiding this game entirely or buying the DS or Wii version. Since gameplay for the PC version is, for all intents and purposes, identical to the PS3 and Xbox 360 versions (with the 360 version's graphics), and since leaning over the keyboard for hours on end can be hazardous for your upper torso, investing in a Windows-supported gamepad (the PS3's DualShock, "Boomerang", and Sixaxis are not supported by Windows) is the best method.Confirmed PC games that support the Xbox 360 controller and similar gamepads as of March, 2012:*Fable: The Lost Chapters*World of Warcraft (All versions)*Marvel Ultimate Alliance*Transformers: The Game*Spore (Yeah, I was surpised too.)*Iron Man*The Incredible Hulk (2008 movie version)*The Godfather: The Game*Star Wars: The Force Unleashed (Both versions)*Spider-Man: Heroes and Villains*The Godfather Part II: The Game*X-Men Origins: Wolverine*Ghostbusters: The Video Game*Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (This game is the reason I finally bought my Xbox 360 controller.)*Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince*Street Fighter IV*Need for Speed: Shift (A steering wheel is better, but a gamepad can be used.)*Batman: Arkham Asylum*Star Wars: The Clone Wars- Republic Heroes*Wolfenstein (2009 version)*James Cameron's Avatar: The Game*Transformers: War for Cybertron*Toy Story 3*Tron Evolution* Every Sonic the Hedgehog game released through Steam* Most (if not all) Sega Genesis/MegaDrive games re-released through Steam* Star Trek Online* DC Universe Online* Batman: Arkham City
