Hollywood actress Sigourney Weaver originally declined involvement in the new videogame, but changed her mind when she heard that Bill Murray was on board - by which point it was too late.

Weaver apparently opted not to reprise her Ghostbusters part in the new game - being written as the third 'movie', but when she heard that Bill Murray was back as Peter Venkman she decided she would like to be involved.

Sadly for Miss Weaver, those behind the game's script had already written her out of the proceedings by that point, with recording well underway involving Murray, Dan Akroyd, et al.

We'll bring you more on the Ghostbusters game soon, we've played it, you know. Thanks Kotaku.
