What if News Corporation bought Carolco Pictures in 1996?

Note: This theory was originally written on the New Idea Central Wiki.
Carolco agreed to sell its assets to 20th Century Fox for $50 million. But when Canal+ made a $58 million bid for the library in January 1996, Fox, which by then lowered their purchase price to $47.5 million, dropped their deal in 1995 but what if News Corporation actually bought Carolco Pictures in 1996?
Here's what might have happened.
This theory is interconnected to What if Paramount kept the rights to Buzzy the Crow, Herman and Katnip, Little Audrey, Modern Madcaps, Casper the Friendly Ghost, Baby Huey, Tommy Tortoise and Moe Hare?

While on their adventure to follow their baby and the bullies, the Griffin family are pursued by Bertram who leads the family into traps to slow them down from following Stewie. At the end, the family finally finds Stewie in, but is then kicked out by a bully, so the family fights the bullies, before fighting against the final boss Bertram. Stewie knocks out Bertram and retrieves the stolen money, as the police came in time to arrest the bullies.

Along with the standard array of jumping and attacking, each player has a special attack that can kill enemies and bosses on screen, but can drain your energy when you use it. For example, Peter farts out fire, Lois charges back and fourth, Meg spins her whip, and Chris does a bottom stomp bounce that causes waves on the ground. Players can also pick up food items to restore health, as well as objects they can throw at enemies and items that temporarily power up their attacks.

If the player runs out of life with no lives remaining (represented by a Stewie-like devil appearing before them), the player has 20 seconds to continue or the game ends.

In each stage, Brian and Stewie must navigate through the area, collecting items such as firecracker balls for self-defense and to restore health. The most important items in each stage are Jolly Farm Revue-brand souvenirs. There is one in every stage, and Brian and Stewie must find them all in order to get the best ending (as well as unlocking a bonus Hollywood level). The other Griffins also appear to give hints on where the souvenirs are. There are also several mini-games in each area, with puzzles such as a matching-card game and a trivia game based on events in actual episodes (from the first three seasons only).
