News: ATV 3 and Interview With a Made Man will be looking for publishers at E3.
Acclaim made a splash at last year's E3 with it's Mafia tale Interview With a Made Man. The future was looking bright for the struggling company. And then a few months later they went belly up. Most of it's E3 announcements were assumed to be snuffed out, being too early in development.
But Interview With a Made Man does not sleep with the fishes yet. It, along with ATV 3 (previously known as ATV Quad Power Racing 3) are being backed by a UK funding group known as Fund4Games. They are supplying managerial guidance and money to the original members of the Acclaim Europe teams that were developing these games to continue their work.
Both titles will be on display at E3 behind closed doors for prospective publishers.
Fund4Games has also purchased the rights to two other unnamed Acclaim properties. I'm sure we'll learn more about those later.
But I for one am I glad to see Interview With a Made Man back in production. It was one of my favorite ideas to come out of E3 2004.
