Amazon Has Special Slimer Edition of Ghostbusters for Wii, PS3 and 360
April 14, 2009 | 7:11 AM PST

It's called 'The Slimer Edition' and it's glorious. It's currently listed as being an Amazon exclusive. Alright, listen up Ghostbuster geeks (I'm looking at you, Matt Green), this thing's for real. It checks in at $129.99 for the 360 and PS3 versions, and $109.99 for the Wii.

The collectibles included in this bundle are all solid pieces, but the price point seems a little high. You be the judge.

Here's the product description from Amazon:

Who You Gonna Call?
The Ghostbusters are back in an all-new story penned by the original creators. With Manhattan newly overrun by ghosts and other supernatural creatures, it's up to you to take on the role of a new recruit joining the original film cast of the famous Ghostbusters team. Equipped with a variety of unique weapons and gadgets, you will hunt, fight, and capture a wide range of uncanny phantasms and demons in an all-new funny and frightening battle to save New York City from its latest paranormal plague.

Game Features:

* Based on the classic Ghostbusters films and features the original cast
* Head out with unique weapons and gadgets
* Battle an incredible variety of supernatural foes
* Move through New York City and stop eerie enemies
* Become part of the famous paranormal ghostbusting team

Included in the Slimer Edition:

* An exclusive Slimer bust designed and created by the original movie sculptor, Steve Johnson. Comes complete with a certificate of authenticity signed by the sculptor himself.
* Exclusive Ghostbusters Minimates. Only be available with the Slimer Edition.
* Exclusive Ghostbusters Gamer Graffix Console Skins.
* Exclusive Ecto 1 Key Chain with lights and sound.


Cast from the Original Films
Ghostbusters: The Video Game features the original film cast from the classic Ghostbusters films, including Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd, Harold Ramis and Ernie Hudson. Aykroyd and Ramis also return to write the script and storyline for the game. Enter an exciting gameplay environment that authentically recreates the whimsical time period of the film and expands the lore and supernatural events that seemingly plague New York City. -- Amazon.com


You want pictures, don't you? Well, the keychain can be seen at the top of this article. Here's the image they give for the MiniMates.



And here's the Slimer bust.



Hit the links at the top for the Wii, 360 and PS3 versions.

The biggest factor in the price point for me is the size of the bust. The bigger, the better. I hope it's bigger than Altair from Assassin's Creed. Everything looks great and has me pumped for June 16th, the release date of the title. If we find out more info about the items in the Slimer Edition itself, we'll let you know.
