    Brian Crecente In “Preview Impossible”

    by Chad Lakkis on July 31, 2008 at 8:52 pm

    When high profile corporations merge, the innocent are often caught in the crossfire. Unsuspecting developers and PR ninjas can sometimes feel like they have no place to turn. There is one man however, who specializes in the impossible — that man is none other than Kotaku’s Editor-in-Chief, .

    Word hit the street several days ago that Activision’s once proudly touted Ghostbusters title was being dropped by the publisher. Looking to set the record straight, one PR rep (codename: Evil PR Ninja Monkey) decided to take matters into his own hands and send a preview copy (with no embargo date) to Crecente.

    We believe that there was also a cassette recording featuring the faint voices of several developers being tortured in the distance, however that cassette likely self-destructed within seconds of Brian listening to it.

    Ghostbusters preview code with no embargo date? Clearly Brian’s mission, should he choose to accept it, is to preview the game. Do the right thing BC — the gaming world is counting on you.

      what the heck is on his head ????
    • I have no clue but it wasn't easy to find a photo of BC with dramatic "comic book" type lighting. Maybe it's a headset or something.

      The thing on his head is that weird mind control...controller.

      Sounds ridiculous. It'd be really weird to watch someone play a game like that, just staring at the TV (I doubt it works right anyway).
    • A mind controller? Strange. Thanks Cenobia.
    • John Kershaw
      Do Kotaku even do Previews? Seems like an odd place to send your one message in a bottle.
    • 1: Sunglasses
      2. All of the time, though we call them impressions.
    • Oh, wait, maybe it is the emotiv dealio. that explains the non smiley face.
      :D
    • Thanks Brian. You know what you have to do.
    • Discombobulator
      Ripten & Kotaku unite! Is that like crossing the streams? Also, " Who ya gonna call (for info on new Gostbusters game)....Cre - cente...."
