Acclaim Games

Acclaim Games, based in Beverly Hills, California, is a private online video game company that offers free MMORPGs on its website upon registration. The company was founded in 2006 and is the successor of Acclaim Entertainment in terms of brand name. After Acclaim Entertainment filed for bankruptcy, former Activision CEO Howard Marks purchased the "Acclaim" name in September 2004 for a reported $100,000. He, along with Neil Malhotra, created a new company, naming it "Acclaim Games" and taking a totally different direction from the previous company.

While Acclaim Games primarily focuses on bringing to North America and Europe online games originally from Asia, it also gives the opportunity to its registered members to submit games they've created. Because its games are free, Acclaim Games relies on In-game advertising and items sales for revenues.

The company has, to this date, released eight games: BOTS (which was its launching title), 9Dragons,  2Moons, Ponystars, Dance Online, My Diva Doll, Tribal Nations and Prize Potato. As of December 2007, the company had 5 million registered accounts and 500,000 active players across all games
