Ghostbusters To Ship Spring 2008?

Could this just be some late mail or does someone know something we don't?
Kotaku obviously have some good connections, having received a copy of the indefinite Ghostbusters game along with a note slating a Spring 2008 release. All allegedly from Activision-Blizzard. Perhaps this is a sign that the publisher has noticed the public uproar about one of our favourite 80's IP's? Could the swell of support and raw demand for the title finally swing developers into producing the other hit series that we have longed for for so long, Gremlins? Just think about it Sony, you could fry those little suckers in your Home microwave. Now that's definitely not social networking.


From Brian Crecente at Kotaku:
This is downright odd.

Just two days after word hit that Activision was taking inventory of future Sierra titles, including Ghostbusters The Video Game and Brutal Legend, and trying to decide which to publish and which to mothball, I received this in the mail.

That's right, a preview copy of Ghostbusters The Video Game. The letter, written by the Evil PR Ninja Monkey (that's actually his title) at Activision Blizzard says that the hands-on preview code is not embargoed and that I can write about it as soon as I'd like to.

According to the included fact sheet the game has a spring 2008 release date, but of course since the sheet isn't dated I have no way of knowing how accurate it is.

Sounds like someone is trying to reassure the gaming public. Now about that Brutal Legend code?
