Ghostbusters Video Game Guide Sample Pages

Cody from Prima Games just sent along these awesome preview pages from the Ghostbusters: The Video Game - Official Game Guide that comes out this Tuesday, June 16th, day-and-date with the game itself. The printed guide is a 224 page flip book with the realistic version (PC/PS3/X360) covered on one side and the stylized version (PS2/WII) covered on the other. In addition to the printed guide, two digital eGuides are available: one that covers the PC/PS3/X360 (115 pages) and one that covers the PS2/Wii (109 pages). The content for each game type that appears in the printed guide is exactly the same as in the respective digital guides.

Based upon my experience downloading and using the Ghostbusters eGuide, I think I can safely say that it's for Windows only. The downloader program, the installer, and the eBook reader are all executable files (.exe), which I doubt would run on anything other than Windows. It appears that the actual eGuide is a PDF file, but it's password protected, and is only viewable through the eBook reader.

You can view the preview pages as stand-alone images, or bundled together into a 2.1 Mb PDF file. The PDF should give you a good example of what the eGuide will be like. (I changed the PDF link from a file here on Spook Central to a link to Proton Charging. Chris was kind enough to link to me for the stand-alone images, so I thought that I'd return the kindness.)

[UPDATE - 6/16/2009 - PDF samples were just added to the Prima website. The PC/PS3/X360 sample contains two new pages: #9 and #33. The PS2/Wii sample contains five new pages: #2, #6, #7, #8, and #12. They've all been added to the image galleries below.]
