Kudos to Majesco for looking to give deserving comic book franchises, namely The Darkness and Ghost Rider, rightful video game renditions. Unfortunately, even with its endeavors to give movie-based and next-generation development a go, financial rockiness have given the company little choice but to sell its rights and obligations of both game titles, in turn earning the company $8 million in proceeds.

For Majesco, the sale "reduces its financial obligations and improves its capital structure" and allows the company "flexibility" to "pursue additional opportunities," according to a press release.

The recipient of the game rights is a yet-to-be-named publisher, but Majesco promises to shed more light on the deal in its January 2006 conference call. We'll be sure to report back with the deets.
