ITEM 2.  ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS.

     Pursuant to the terms of an Exchange Agreement, dated as of October 19,
1994 (the "Exchange Agreement"), between Acclaim Entertainment, Inc., a Delaware
corporation (the "Registrant"), Tele-Communications, Inc., a Delaware
corporation ("TCI"), and TCI GameCo Holdings, Inc., a Colorado corporation and a
wholly owned subsidiary of TCI ("TCI Sub"), on February 2, 1995, the Registrant
issued and sold to TCI Sub 4,348,795 shares (the "Acclaim Shares") of its common
stock, par value $0.02 per share, in exchange for 3,403,405 shares (the "TCI
Shares") of TCI's Class A Common Stock.  The Acclaim Shares represented
approximately 9.79% of the Registrant's outstanding common stock as of February
2, 1995 (after giving effect to the issuance thereof).

     The terms of the Exchange Agreement and the transactions contemplated
thereby were negotiated by the Registrant, TCI and TCI Sub on an arm's length
basis.  The number of TCI Shares acquired in exchange for the Acclaim Shares was
based on the market price of the TCI Shares and the Acclaim Shares at the time
of execution of the Exchange Agreement.

     TCI has registered under the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Act") the offer
and resale by the Registrant of the TCI Shares.  The Registrant currently
intends to sell up to 1,000,000 of the TCI Shares during the next few weeks, at
market prices, in brokerage transactions on The NASDAQ Stock Market National
Market.  At the present time, the Registrant has not made any decision in

respect of the use of the proceeds of any such sale of TCI Shares, nor has it
made any decision in respect of the disposition of the remaining TCI Shares. 
The Registrant has granted TCI Sub the right, following the Closing, to require
the Registrant to register under the Act the offer and resale of the Acclaim
Shares.

     In connection with closing of the transactions contemplated by the Exchange
Agreement, Bruce Ravenel, an executive officer of TCI Technology Ventures, Inc.,
a wholly-owned subsidiary of TCI,  has been appointed to the Registrant's board
of directors.

     In addition, Gregory E. Fischbach and James Scoroposki (each, a "Founder"
and, together, the "Founders"), directors, officers and principal stockholders
of the Registrant, have entered into an agreement with TCI Sub under which the
Founders and TCI Sub have agreed to vote all shares of the Registrant
beneficially owned by them or it in favor of those individuals nominated by the
board of directors of the Registrant at any annual or special meeting of the
stockholders of the Registrant at which directors are being elected provided
that, subject to certain exceptions, such nominees include the Founders (or
their designees or successors) and the individual proposed by TCI Sub.

     Reference is hereby made to the Registrant's Current Report on Form 8-K,
dated October 19, 1994, and to the Registrant's Proxy Statement, dated December
27, 1994, both of which have been previously filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission, for additional information in respect of the Exchange
Agreement and related transactions, including the formation by wholly-owned
subsidiaries of the Registrant and TCI of ACTC, L.P., a joint venture limited
partnership organized for the development, acquisition and electronic
distribution of entertainment software on interactive networks, as well as for
the development of a standard for broadband network gaming to be incorporated
into advanced set-top boxes.
