Xbox Gaming in South Africa

Ready your proton packs, Atari has announced their first Ghostbusters digital title, with Ghostbusters: Sanctum of Slime set to invade the Xbox LIVE Arcade in 2011.

"Following the success of Ghostbusters: The Video Game, we are committed to continuing the lore of the Ghostbusters franchise with Ghostbusters: Sanctum of Slime," says Jim Wilson, President and CEO of Atari, Inc. "In Ghostbusters: Sanctum of Slime, we are introducing an entirely new look and gameplay experience on digital platforms that will impress new and loyal Ghostbusters fans alike."

Developed by Behavior Interactive (or Artificial Mind & Movement, as they used to be called), Ghostbusters: Sanctum of Slime features 4-player online  (and offline) co-op multiplayer, with players assuming the role of a rookie hired by the Ghostbusters to save New York City from "a disaster of ghoulish proportions".

The usual array of ghostbusting weapons will be available, from the Proton Stream and Plasma Inductor, to the Fermion Shock, with players having to work as a team to clear out a series of haunted locations.

Ghostbusters: Sanctum of Slime is set to arrive on the Xbox LIVE Arcade sometime in "spring" 2011.
