Shame, another good company is going down.She may save her ass tough, if she sells some stuff.
But that's true, she didn't release any REALLY good games lately.

[rant]Jesus christ it's not a 'she', it's an 'it'! It's a group of people, hence, it's not a female.[/rant]

And on topic, when was the last good game Acclaim developed? Mid-90's wasn't it? Wink

About Mortal Kombat. Midway owns the Mortal Kombat license now. They've been making the money off the series now. Acclaim has nothing to do with it now.

midway made all of the mortal kombats. acclaim just published the ports on super nintendo i believe. but acclaim never had anything to do with actually making the games. I really don't care if they go bankrupt look at the garbage they've put out.

Ah yeah wasn't really sure. I started up a Mortal Kombat 2 ROM and it had both Midway and Acclaim. I couldn't remember who originally made it.

According to an article here Aclaim had already lost its liscense for Turok and All Star Baseball due to non payment of royalties.
