After recent rumors about a Xbox 360 Ghostbusters game, Joystiq.com reports:
The Ghostbusters drama just keeps on coming as Dan Aykroyd himself (who starred in and wrote the original film) has revealed just what is going on with our favorite revived franchise. From Dr. Raymond Stantz himself: "Universal purchased the rights from Sony for a game. I'm actually going to have to perform and do some motion capture for them. That will be next year." So now we know exactly why Sony had to drop the hammer on ZootFly and their Ghostbusters prototype. But why the sudden amount of interest in such an obscure property? It should be obvious by now that this is no mere coincidence. The moment the theme song itself resurfaced in a soon to be released Beatmania title, we knew something had to be up.
And that something is a new feature film. In yet another interview, Aykroyd reveals that not only is Ghostbusters III in production, but it's a computer animated film in which he lends his voice.
All that's left for this resurrection is some new toys and Ecto Cooler, because in 2007 Ghostbusters is all up in our grills, and we're loving it.

Bloomberg, a highly reputable financial news and analysis company, reports that Sony Corp. 3rd Quarter Profits may fall 50%, jepordizing the company's reputation among investors. The likely 3rd Quarter drop is attributed to "The game division, Sony's second-largest by revenue, [which] probably lost 50.9 billion yen during the quarter, compared with a profit of 67.8 billion yen a year earlier." However, Sony's overall fiscal year profits may yet beat their forecasts, which were drastically cut back in October, due to an expected 23% increase in profits from their consumer electronics division and a weaker Yen. Still, some investment management companies do not recommend investors buy stock in Sony "until the company improves its earnings."
