Ghostbusters 360 Not Region Locked, Europeans Rejoice

Nicholas "bapenguin" Puleo June 9th, 2009 at 3:36 PM

Remember when Sony bought Ghostbusters game exclusivity in the European region, thereby locking out Xbox 360 owners from getting their hands on the title until later this year? Yeah, that sucked worse than a Slimer bath.

But there's good news today as it's been discovered that the Xbox 360 version of the game, shipping in North America next week, is not region locked. What does that mean? If you can find the game from a NA retailer and get it shipped to your home country - wherever that may be - you can play Ghostbusters on the Xbox 360 on June 16th with the rest of the world!

Exclusivity Shmusivity! On a similar note, look for a unique and exclusive Ghostbusters contest here very...VERY soon.

Looks like I'll be getting Ghostbusters on the 16th. I don't know what Gamestop is doing but they said, I am no longer prepaid for Van Halen (something about lack of a sku?) so to I moved my money to Ghostbusters. I'm glad that this will be region free.
Anyone else that gets it and wants to play send FR.

Great to see that some other people will be getting this. After seeing a few reviews I've decided to pick it up when it comes out.
