What does /vr/ think about Acclaim?

>> No.6127218

I think if you're going to pay people to name their babies after your games you should at least make the games good.

They published more than a few sports titles that I played the fuck out of. And Judge Dredd.

They suck, They mostly publish trash. X-MEN Children of the Atom was one of the few games I have with their label. It surprises me that they didn't went bankrupt much sooner.

A wonderful company. NBA Jam, WWF Wrestlemania, Turok series, Forsaken, Crazy Taxi. Only a total moron wouldn't like acclaim.

It's sad how most game companies outside of the EAs and Valves don't seem to last.

All A«laim games I played were pretty good actually (Turok 2, Re-Volt, Dave Mirra Freestyle BMX)

It's hit and miss for me. I love Spider-man & Venom Maximum Carnage, Batman Forever The Arcade Game, WWF Warzone, WWF Attitude, and both ECW games they made. Some of the games I couldn't stand were the Simpsons games, WWF Wrestlemania The Arcade Game or Wolverine Adamantium Rage(it's only enjoyable when using a Game Genie).

Acclaim's HQ was located in my home town, Glen Cove, which was pretty cool. I never tried going inside, despite it was on the same street where my mom worked which I would walk to after school. My mom did go inside once and got me a awesome Turok shirt based on the boxart. I also recall someone getting me a free copy of NBA Jam. Mid 90s Acclaim was a awesome part of my childhood.

Their published games ranged from decent to dogshit. Their self-developed games, howerver, were all atrocious.

Re-Volt is fucking kino.

But this game was made by Capcom, with Acclaim just being the publisher for the console port.

>>6127864
From all these games you mentioned, only Turok and Forsaken were made by Acclaim, retard.
