Maybe they got it right this time

Whenever I hear of a video game being made from a beloved childhood movie, I get the sort of queasy hope/fear sensation that my comic-book-geek friends get when they hear about the latest comic-gone-big-screen. But this time, I'm feeling more hope than fear (SFW).

Cool!

It definitely doesn't hurt that they've got the original writers and cast.

For serious?!? I never assume it's the original voices because my ears aren't that great. That's awesome!

They didn't get Rick Moranis back, because he's quit acting entirely, and they didn't get Sigourney Weaver, because I guess video games are beneath her. But they've got Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd, Harold Ramis and Ernie Hudson, and Aykroyd and Ramis are doing the writing — just like the movies.

There's lessons to be learned there.
I'll put money that the publishers don't get it though.

I've got my fingers crossed on this one.

I /so/ wish I were working on this.
