NASDAQ issued an (http://biz.yahoo.com/e/120131/thqi8-k.html) official warning to THQ because their stock values are worth like nothing now($0.70). They have 180 days in which to bring their stocks up or they're dead.

THQ has been focusing on shitty shovelware movie games recently, and now boy do they suck a big one for it. They recently released a (http://investor.thq.com/phoenix.zhtml?c=96376&p=irol-newsArticle&ID=1652344&highlight=) note where they try to atone for their sins and promise on focusing on AAA titles from IPs they have, no doubt to stop shareholders from jumping the ship.

So either THQ are back in business, or are going to rape their IPs for whatever quick buck they can.

And?

On topic: losing the X360 version of The Witcher 2 probably hit them hard as well.

Well, at any rate it will be somewhat sad to see them go. While they've mostly produced a mountain of shovelware 20 years high, a few good titles did come out of there. Company of Heroes, Dawn of War, even Saint's Row if 3 is anything to go by. Plus, while their WWE titles were by no stretch great games, they were OK at the least. A huge step up from the barely playable shit Acclaim did with the license.

I wonder what happens to Relic then, and iirc THQ acquired the Homeworld IP a while ago and sat on it.
