News: 100 Bullets

Acclaim have gotten licence deeds to the DC comic series 100 bullets.

With many comic books being turned into movies and video games recently it seems appropriate that the DC series '100 Bullets' would also get a game. The full press release can be found below.

GLEN COVE, NY, June 11, 2003 � Bringing the cold, hard steel action of one of today's most popular comic book series to the next-generation gaming systems, Acclaim Entertainment, Inc. (NASDAQ.SC: AKLM), today announced that it has signed an exclusive agreement with DC Comics for the interactive publishing rights to 100 Bullets. An award-wining pulp noir comic, 100 Bullets was created by Brian Azzarello and Eduardo Risso, and chronicles the dark, moral-testing exploits of Agent Graves, a rogue member of a secret organization, who provides people with the opportunity of a lifetime - an attaché case containing the proof, the gun, and the carte blanche immunity to exact revenge on a person who's done them an irrevocable wrong.

"The 100 Bullets universe possesses all of the key elements that comprise what consumers are looking for in today's games � great characters, deep storytelling and edge-of-your-seat action," said Marc Metis, Senior Vice President of Brand Management for Acclaim. "In keeping with its comic book origin, we will challenge players to 'think before they shoot' and allow them to explore the moral implications of their actions."

"We're exited to bring the first of VERTIGO's preeminent titles to the video game consoles," said John Nee, DC Comics, Vice President - Business Development. "This will redefine what a comic book game can be."
