ShadowPaladin V1.0 Posted December 7, 2005 Share Posted December 7, 2005 http://www.maltzauctions.com/acclaimip.htm I have to agree with Volourn. Bioware is pretty much dead now.

mkreku Posted December 7, 2005 Share Posted December 7, 2005 I was looking at that list today and I was wondering why noone had picked up the Bard's Tale International IP.. Swedes, go to: Spel2, for the latest game reviews in swedish! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reveilled Posted December 7, 2005 Share Posted December 7, 2005 Wait, what does publishing the rights to a game actually mean? Do they just get the rights to republish the game, or the right to use the name to publish an entirely new game, or what? I'm just wondering what a Hentai game company would be able to do with the rights to "Mary Kate & Ashley Magical Mystery Mall". Hawk! Eggplant! AWAKEN!

Oerwinde Posted December 7, 2005 Share Posted December 7, 2005 I wonder how much some of those useless rights go for. Like Batman Forever. The area between the balls and the butt is a hotbed of terrorist activity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laozi Posted December 7, 2005 Share Posted December 7, 2005 I hope Hades or Volourn get here before all the WWF titles are gone People laugh when I say that I think a jellyfish is one of the most beautiful things in the world. What they don't understand is, I mean a jellyfish with long, blond hair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mondo Posted December 7, 2005 Share Posted December 7, 2005 Why would anyone bid on games that other companies have already continued? (Burnout, Narc, Simpsons) Wizards and Warriors was a smart pickup. What if I wanted to kill the other bounty hunters but still have the Twi'leks chase me?

Gorth Posted December 7, 2005 Share Posted December 7, 2005 *Sigh* Fond memories of Re-Volt tournaments... not to mention Bubble Bobble “He who joyfully marches to music in rank and file has already earned my contempt. He has been given a large brain by mistake, since for him the spinal cord would surely suffice.” - Albert Einstein Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadowPaladin V1.0 Posted December 7, 2005 Author Share Posted December 7, 2005 I saw a version of Bubble Bobble recently. It was on one of the Nintendo hadhelds but I dont remember which one. There only two so you have a 50/50 chance. I have to agree with Volourn. Bioware is pretty much dead now.

I'm just wondering what a Hentai game company would be able to do with the rights to "Mary Kate & Ashley Magical Mystery Mall". <{POST_SNAPBACK}> It depends if its an IP or a franchise. If its an IP then the publishers usually owns EVERYTHING, from the doodles of the koncept artists to the patented "technology X" engine and every idea the designers put on paper during development. ( yes, the dev studio basicly sell their souls to the publisher ) If its a franchise then they own everything except that which is part of the license that they bought which is still the property of Warner Bros. if its a Matrix game and so on DISCLAIMER: Do not take what I write seriously unless it is clearly and in no uncertain terms, declared by me to be meant in a serious and non-humoristic manner.

Judge Hades Posted December 8, 2005 Share Posted December 8, 2005 Bioware should buy Mortal Kombat, then replace all the characters with Bioware characters so they can face each other in fierce combat!

Child of Flame Posted December 8, 2005 Share Posted December 8, 2005 Doesn't Midway already own rights to publish new Mortal Kombat games? Nevermind that though.

Judge Hades Posted December 8, 2005 Share Posted December 8, 2005 You know, I have always thought there was something weird with Jaheira and Khalid. Khalid came off as some gay guy who was still in the closet while jaheira was a "butch" lesbian. It was just very very odd yet not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
