Dan Aykroyd calls Gamestop preorders

The Ghostbusters game is due out today on every platform in existence, well, except in Europe where Sony owns exclusivity rights until November…  Anyway, it appears GameStop has asked Dan Aykroyd, “Who you gonna call?”, as the legendary film star is calling people who have pre-ordered the game from the store.

Here’s what the message says:

Greetings fellow paranormal enthusiasts. This is Dan Aykroyd, speaking to you through the miracle of 16-bit voice recording to remind you that your copy of Ghostbusters will be at your local GameStop by tomorrow. Don’t forget to bring in your used games because you’ll receive an extra 30 percent credit for games you trade toward Ghostbusters. Thank you, and see you on the other side.

Very nice play by GameStop changing up from the normal mundane “Hi this is Ashley at Gamestop calling you to say <insert game here> will be out on <insert date here> and to call <your local gamestop number> for questions.”
