You can bid on the Acclaim building for a mere $9 million at the upcoming game publisher’s bankruptcy sale. It’s kind of depressing to virtually rummage through the piles of crap that made up the daily existence of an entire gaming company – though I’d love to know why they have an entire bookshelf filled with football helmets. The auction includes some pretty sweet boardroom tables, tear-stained cubicles and one nifty clock. The auction will also sell off 43,000 video game “cartridges.” I guess that means you can pick up the entire run of BMX XXX for a song.

Doesn't look like there's any IP for sale like the 3DO auction, though.

Even though it's Acclaim that still kinda got to me ya know?

I don't think any development was done in this building in New York, so it's all right to take all their stuff for pennies and not feel any remorse about it.

If they auction off Acclaim Studios Austin, though, look out -- I'm flying over to get all the Vexx sketchbooks.

Is that a Red Star poster? Ok, maybe I'll feel a little sad for this, then

I hear those come with free 10th grade Biology Notes.
