    You realize that Saint's Row The Third sold a bit better than Saint's Row 2, right?

      Re: THQ possibly done

      Im sure it did because of new fans, but that has nothing to do with what im talking about. Many people that loved the mp didnt buy because they took out the mp. Not saying SRTT didnt sell well. But there are many former fans thst passed on SRTT because ofvthis. Have any of u visited the saintsrow forums? If so u would know what im talking about

        I'm right there with you, but for a different reason. SR1 & 2 had a rabid following for the story, and they totally butchered the story in SR3. They killed GAT for crying out loud. Anyhow, that's why I listed the series and not the latest one in SR3 as that one let down a LOT of fans for a set of reason.

          I guess I can understand they kind of flop on there new shooting franchises I think it homefront & red fraction. They had saints row being a little too over the top throught the games and actually had them lose more of their fanbase then they gained. I not sure how well there wrestling game still sell, but I think those kind of went down ever since the current gen systems came out. Other than that it was just filled with below average releases.

              I like how they dont want people to panic about future releases like Homefront II. I didn't even realize they were going to make another one after Homefront was cliche and bland.

                    Guess I should have said from my perspective. Haven't played a WWE game since around the first or second one they put on 360/PS3 when they first tried re-inventing the controls with the right stick.

                      I just want Company of Heroes 2 to not turn out awful because of this.

                        This bankruptcy doesn't affect current games...as before, they'll live and die by the current stable of games coming out in the next year....

                            That I don't know, but I'd assume so....

                            If the end of the company happened their current game stable would most likely be picked up by someone, especially WWE (that makes so much money)

                            I mostly just got that this is like the "restructuring" type bankruptcy, they're trying to get the company good going forward.

                              From the Wrestling Observer, it is reported that THQ owes WWE $45 million.

                                Yeah, not sure how they keep that license if they use bankruptcy to avoid paying for it.
