Module Information

The Activision PAL Version of Ghostbusters contains a bug. If you reach the yellow flashing HQ and press fire, the game crashes. The HES Version fixed this.

Company Information

Activision - the worlds first third party publisher was founded in 1979 by four former Atari employees (David Crane, Larry Kaplan, Alan Miller, Bob Whitehead with Levy, plus founding Chief Executive Officer Jim Levy). Its first products were cartridges for the Atari 2600 video console system published from 1980 for the US market and from August 1981 for the international market. The name "Activision" was decided upon so that the company would appear before Atari in the phone book.
