As the mighty (or not so mighty) empire that was Acclaim crumbles to the ground, there are a few games to be plucked from the ruins. Recent reports have suggested that Take 2 Interactive has put up a bid for Acclaim's temporarily homeless street racer, Juiced. Allegedly Take 2 would fork over $8.125 million for publishing rights, with an additional $1.875 million to be paid in royalties. Of course, all of this money will be going straight to Acclaim's creditors, as Acclaim still owes in excess of $25 million. As for Juiced, the game could be a valid competitor in the street racing genre, and with a week of bidding to go, don't be surprised if EA swallows this one up in order to ensure the success of Need For Speed Underground 2.
