Acclaim update

Acclaim

According to recent reports, Acclaim has shut down its home office in Glen Cove, NY without any official word on its intention of filing for Chapter 11. Both the Austin, TX and Manchester (UK) offices were closed earlier, with rumors that employees had not been paid for the month of August. Now, while this looks to spell certain doom for the once great publisher, one analyst seems to think the contrary, "[Acclaim] will merely declare to keep their creditors at bay… They're not that bad off… I think that the rumors of their demise are greatly exaggerated." Could this mean we may still get a shot at 100 Bullets after all?
