3DO’s Army Men Sold!

The final few assets from the bankrupt 3DO have been sold. Crave Entertainment has emerged as the winner in the bidding war for the Army Men franchise, settling on a price of $750,000. Meanwhile Jacked went to JoWooD for $90,000 and 3DO and EA founder Trip Hawkins bought the rights to a string of backlist games including Jonny Moseley Mad Trix and the Family/Vegas pack for $200,000. Hawkins also bought a 3DO Internet patent for a concept involving the trade of virtual products, such as children's playing cards, for $205,000. Although almost all of the assets were sold 3DO’s lawyers have indicated that the results were “not as good as we hoped for."
