Aklaim goes under, so buy some gaming history!!!

[CKemu]

The Auction

Aklaim produced crap game after crap game, and alot of licensed stuff, since the doors closed on that company you have the chance to buy the publishing rights to their back catalog of games, thats like over 200 games

You could own:

Burnout
Ecco the Dolphin
Mary Kate & Ashley Sweet 16 the OT's as slaves.... :evil:
Myst
Street Fighter The Movie
WWF Raw
Worms 3D

etc etc, might be fun to bid

 

[Trotterwatch]

Tempted to make a speculative bid of $1 for some of the crappier titles

 

[Miretank]

lol, talking about mary kate & ashley, did you see the current offer for the "Get A Clue" game? :evil:
Really No Clues why someone could spend that money in such big crap :evil:

 

[Hexidecimal]

Aklaim made fucking Super Smash TV. So I don't want to hear anything about them making crap games. That game alone more then makes up for those stupid MK&A Games

 

[raksmey1309]

The only gain i still like from Aklaim is Scooby Doo for Snes the rest r crappy.:Yucky:

 

[blizz]

I'll be surprised if Criterion or their new publisher don't bid for the Burnout series.

 

[ScottJC]

why isn't Turok up for bid? *cries*

 

[snesmaster40]

Why is everyone one saying "Aklaim" when it's "Acclaim"?

 

[CKemu]

Because (yes I know the two << represent two C's, but it can also be written as a K)

 

[snesmaster40]

I see

 

[Trotterwatch]

I thought it was because of the Mortal Kombat connection

 

[2fast4u]

thats largely crappy gaming history...but history none the less

i gotta say though, ecco the dolphin was one of the best graphics engine demos i had ever seen on the dreamcast.

 

[gamefreaks]

Do the licences include the source code and resources???

If they did it would be worth some publisher grabbing a few and porting them to the DS & PSP...

Also, on games like the F1 series etc, what's the deal with regards to the FIA licences?

 

[Falcon4ever]

Re-volt was actually pretty fun to multiplay

/me remembers the days at school

 

[smegforbrain]

Some of these would present interesting situations - like, with one of the Spider-Man games, could you even publish a remake of the game with other companies like EA and Activision having the rights to the character(s)?

 

[WhiteX]

extreme-g is on too.

 

[LazerTag]

Now, now, my niece and a couple of my little cousins (girls ranging in age from 5 to 7) love those Mary-Kate and Ashley games. Simply because everyone (including me) think they are junk doesn't make it so. Maybe there simply isn't enough 5 to 7 year old girls who want that type of game or even play games. They just hit a bad market on those.


Now the 18 Wheeler game, well that one is a true stinker.

I'll be surprised if Criterion or their new publisher don't bid for the Burnout series.

EA already bought it didn't they?

Maybe we should all chip in $1 and bid for something under the name EmuTalk.

Not a bad idea, would that make us all technically Publishers?
