New Ghostbusters Fans Events Section

AJ Quick — 2009-07-02T20:19:22-04:00

I just got done working on this new Events Calendar. It is apart of the new Franchise system that should be done here shortly.

http://www.gbfans.com/fans/events/

The problem right now is that the section is extremely barren. I have only entered in 2-3 events and one of them is already past. So please.. if you have a local convention coming up or a movie screening please add it at this link:

http://www.gbfans.com/control-panel/events/add/

This calendar will only be complete with the help of you guys letting people know about local events! Please limit this to Ghostbusters stuff (screenings, etc), and conventions... or events that your franchise will be attending (walk-a-thons, charity stuff).

New Xbox LIVE Feature on Ghostbusters Fans

AJ Quick — 2009-06-16T19:27:34-04:00

Since Ghostbusters: The Video Game has come out, I thought it would be important to keep track of Ghostbusters Fans scores and Gamertags. This simple utility shows the top scores for Ghostbusters: The Video Game as well as all the users Gamertags!

Looks like castewar is in the lead.. but I suspect that once Xbox LIVE is back up the scores will come flooding in!
