Those lucky gougers over at Videogaming247 recently had an interview session with none other than Ernie Hudson (Winston Zeddmore) from Ghostbusters. During the interview (which they plan to post later on in the week) Ernie discussed many things, and one of them was the size of the script for the game which has been written by Dan Akroyd and Harold Ramis.
From the interview:
“You know, I read the script, and it’s a really good script. It’s huge. It covers every possibility. A regular film script is 120 pages, this thing’s 480 pages, or something. All the characters are back, including Bill Murray, which I was surprised at, because Bill tends to not do these things. If you look at his movies, I think the only time he ever did a sequel was with Ghostbusters. And it took five years to get him to do that.”
That is because Bill is not only a pretty sullen person, but is more concerned with alcohol, pot, and overseas hookers sexual liaisons apparently.
Hudson was at the MCM Expo in London promoting the Ghostbusters game, and as stated above you can read the full interview on Videogaming247 later this week. Hit the link below to go directly to the source.

Bill Murray is a legend.
Ok he does questionable things in his spare time, but its just that, HIS time.
Awesome actor, and imo, made ghostbusters what it was.
Fantastic! See Epic Games? This is how you do it! Not an 8 page script like Gears of War probably had.
“I’m Marcus Fenix. You are bad. I must kill you because you are a bad thing.”
GENIUS!
Kev – personally I love Bill Murray and he can bang hookers, get high and drink till he throws up all he wants. I still think he is a genius therefore as a huge fan of his I can joke about the monkeys on his back all I want. Take it as the joke that it was meant to be please.
Yeah, I’m siding with Stephany. It’s just a joke. Anyways, it looks like this game is moving in the right direction. Can’t wait!
Cannot wait for this game……excited…and Bill Murry is my hero….next to Stephany of course..
Go Marlins!!!!
