Posted: Fri May 09, 2008 7:02 am Post subject: My Acclaim treasures from NY + FFX |
|
|
As some of you may know (those that go on Something Awful and NeoGAF), I used to work for Acclaim. I quit there just shy of 2 weeks before it went bankrupt and shut its doors.
I was the only tester on the team for All Star Baseball 2004 Xbox (Online) and ReVolt, both which were canceled (with the former not coming out until the 2005 version if I recall).
The good thing about the side area of the complex I was in was that it also doubled as storage, so I was able to grab some little things such as Turok/Extreme G/Forsaken soundtracks, but also some betas and unreleased stuff lying around that was going to be thrown out.
Here's some pics of what I have...let me know if anything spurs any interest (apologies for the quick pics, just got back from vacation in NY where I got all this stuff):
PlayStation 2 Hardware Docs:
Blank GD-ROM disc:
Dakar 2 for GameCube (Final retail version I think):
Street Fighter: The Movie for Saturn (Looks like final retail):
Not labeled, but if I recall, it's a beta version of the first Dave Mirra game for PlayStation 1:
ECW 1 Pre-alpha (Guessing PS1?):
Trickstyle demo for Dreamcast (I think this is the same one on the PlayStation Mag Demo Disc):
Katana GD-ROM of (if I recall) some golf game:
If I recall, final version of Dakar 2 for Xbox:
Final Fantasy X US 80% beta (Game can be completed, I think the translation wasn't fully complete):

Under title, it says "Golf Yarouze." *shrug* No idea, never heard of it.

Oh yeah, it is Dreamcast. I forgot it didn't have a case, so I grabbed a blank PS1 CD-R case to put it in :) |

Any chance you plan on ripping those? If so, I have, and I'm sure a helthy handful of other people have the means to get those dumped/ripped. |

I went to the bankruptcy auction in New York! There was a very large milk crate full of CD-R cases with labels for all sorts of Saturn, Dreamcast and PlayStation builds, and all of them were empty. That was upsetting. |

Somehow i don't think that was the most upsetting thing that happened to you at the auction... |

Yeah, that's my plan :) Putting all the stuff up to see if anyone is interested. PM me if you want and we can figure it out. |
