Title: Ghost Squad
Post by: Bill Murray on November 05, 2007, 12:55:53 pm: This needed a topic of its own.

So Ghost Squad is being developed for the Wii and a trailer has popped up on the internets.

It's probably helped by the banana stabbing, crotch punching, swan boat driving bikini-cladded girls. But this game looks absolutely amazing and to surely keep you going for the release of Smash Bros and all that jazz.

So here's the trailer. Watch and be amazed.

I'm pretty sure the bikini girls thing is a cheat or whatnot.

I assembled the first arcade units here in Finland when they first came. I'm not sure if there's enough replay-value though. After all it's just an arcade rail-shooter.. not that much gameplay.

That's what they're doing with Time Crisis on the PS3, right? I'd gladly pay extra for an authentic light gun experience.

I'm still getting this and Umbrella Chronicles though.

Indeed, a reason why I'm glad it's coming out at $30 as opposed to its original price of $50 at one point. I plan on doing the Mario Galaxy deal at Toys R Us where you get a $25 gift card upon purchase and then putting that towards Ghost Squad when the time comes.

The one "gun" game I'm looking forward to though is Umbrella Chronicles myself.
