No...I want them to reincorporate and start making next generation games. That way there will be more hardware available when they go belly up again. :smt082

I hope they come back and make another kickass Turok game. Evolution was subpar.

Acclaim should stay dead and buried. Do us all a favour :p

Acclaim are to video games what McDonalds is to a fat person's arteries. I'm glad they fucked off and I am still trying to find a way to remove their logo from F355 on the PS2/Dreamcast.

Anyone got any tips?

Did anyone ever pick up the rights to the Red Star? I didn't think that was such a bad game...

And yes, I'll second the "start producing games for the next generation, that way we get more hardware" comment :).

Not that I've heard.
Odd how this game seems to garner lots of interest but remains in gaming limbo, while Juiced was eventually released.
Maybe we'll see it come out as a $19.99 stealth release just before the Xbox 360 launches?

Hell, I'd buy it for $20. It was by no means fantastic, but it was pretty good - especially when you compare it to the usual crapware that Acclaim put out.

I'd also like to see someone make another turok game (that doesn't suck), however, Acclaim no longer owns the rights to it. They lost the license to that before they went totally bankrupt.
