Quoted from Lermods:

Voices can be added as it was done for walking dead...it will be a while, though.

No need. I asked Stern via Facebook if Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd, Harold Ramis and Ernie Hudson voice audio from the films will be in the game and was told yes. Stern got the licensing situation spot on with this title.

I must say that I'm completely blown away by not only how good Ghostbusters looks visually but also by the number of toys / features in all versions. The artwork looks incredible with a ton of attention to detail. The toy offering is great on any model with some very unique features on the premium / LE. The molded toys look incredible as well. Double scoop shots, 2 captive ball shots with one being a 3 ball captive ball mech, LCD based toy, interactive Slimer toy, ramp that drops below the playfield into a physical ball lock / subway, magnets around flippers, two ramps using metal parts + metal habit rail, two drop targets in the center on the playfield?!

Then there's the fantastic work on the license. Stern did not botch the license with this title. Custom callouts from Ernie Hudson, licensed music, and the ability to use the likeness / audio of all of the Ghostbusters from the films. Incredible.

Myself and a friend already have deposits down on premiums. As a Ghostbusters fan I couldn't be more pleased.

Quoted from TheLaw:

Ha nope never have...ouch that does sound bad though.

I saw the live stream, well if you call 2-3 minutes a live stream, lol. Thankfully they don't appear to be using the theme with vocals for the games main track. I thought I heard some other type of music as well, maybe for a mode, that sounded very good. I didn't hear the vocals until after the game was over which seems like a good time to hear it.

I also heard some cool audio effects, a few lines from Dan Aykroyds character (pulled from film) and a custom Ernie Hudson line or two.

For adding players they really need to have the "yoooo" , "Rayyyy", "Egonnnnn" lines play with each button press.

I just noticed how the firehouse model in the game has a pinball machine in one of the windows, just how the real firehouse in the film has a pin. Nice job Stern. I still can't get over how good this game looks.

Quoted from frolic:

The fact that NONE of all the new competitors have an answer for Stern's Pro price point would say this is not true.

Great point. Also, I look at a game like Rob Zombie and can't help to think "damn, Ghostbusters pro has way more going on it then that game and it costs far less".

Quoted from pascal-pinball:

who knows what these posts are in the outlanes?

They may be there just to help direct the ball down the outlanes. I believe this is due to the game using double inlanes, a first for a standard body game according to John Trudeau from his "Flippin Podcast" interview. John had to use steel plates next it the outlanes instead of traditional wood rails to accommodate double inlanes on each side.

Quoted from CaptainNeo:

has anyone even confirmed Stern is really making Ghostbusters? I think it's all hype.

Supposedly it's all been a hoax, someone hacked Stern's Facebook page, created incredible lifelike CGI to look like a lot of their employees. Now some people on Pinside are trying to cover it up and they call these bozos who conveniently show up to deal with the problem with a fake, electronic light show. I don't get it.
