I don't know why this is good news guys, Acclaims named released many memorable games. Ecco the Dolphin, NBA Jam, Super Bust-A-Move are a few that I can remember.

because acclaim have been the pissbucket of the games industry. They're the ones who came up with bmx xxx, a version of nba jam that's worse than the one that came out in 1995, and many more poor games. Their decisions in the last 5 years are horrible. I'm glad they're out of business. However, I feel for the developers. It's not like it's their fault. It's management.  |
