THQ is No More, Assets Have Been Sold Off

[abbadon_34]

Wow, they really broke it up, I honesly expected most the big titles to go together. I wonder if Crytek will "finish" Homefront in the RED DAWN vein (and writer) that it started with. That was pretty much the only selling point it had.

Warhammer: Total War

no word on the WWE games?

[citation][nom]Kami3k[/nom]Yes because they ruined the Total War series....I see someone isn't an actual RTS fan.[/citation]

Agreed. They have done a great job with it. Super excited about rome. Sega don't seem to interfere too much. Total war 40k would be a great game made by the right people

Didn't they start development on a lord of the rings total war or was that a mod i saw else where??

Third age mod for medieval kingdoms expansion. Really very in depth mod

Shame THQ couldn't keep Relic - I really hope the new company is into the idea of more CoH and Homeworld games!

RIP.

"On May 10, 2007, THQ reported its highest annual sales figures and net profits ever for the fiscal year which ended March 31. THQ's revenues reached over $1 billion." - wiki

So ... in 5 years you can run a billion dollar company into the ground.

Note to self - need to pay bills (Uncle Sam)

Fingers still crossed on COH 2 !!!!

Agreed.. I loved Homefront's premise and storyline, but it was about the worst of the samey military FPS games we've had. Crytek has a history of, if not amazing, at least unique and interesting shooters so I'm curious what they do with it. It can only be better than Homefront 1 was, anyway.

This company made many of the games that defined my childhood. Especially most of the WWF/WWE games they produced. I hope the best for the future of these games.

A few words to each of the following:

To Sega - Homeworld 3. As a side note Creative Assembly needs to make "US Congress: Total War"

To Koch Media - Freespace 3

To Crytek - Homefront had an interesting premise but was poorly executed. Make Homefront in the open world style of Far Cry and Crysis (certainly not Crysis 2) with a less cliched characters and it'll be a winner.

Thats what they get for rushing "Frontline: Fuel of War" out before the developers had finished it. I never bought another THQ product after that.

I deeply regret giving my money to THQ during the THQ Humble Bundle game sales! I should have given all the money to charity and the company that hosted the sales! Sigh...
