gaming THQ

[LunaShy 168]

Have you guys heard that THQ is selling off all of there IPs? Truth be told as long as Saints row is given the freedom it had at THQ I'm good with it. What was you favorite THQ game ? Where would you like to see it go.

 

-saints row I'd like to see go to either EA or Zenimax

Its a bit unfortunate if you ask me, but what can you do.

 

MY favorite game has to be Saints Row. I hardly play any THQ game but that one.

[Jessper 735]

Probably Saints Row 3. It's a great fun and one of the very few THQ related games that aren't a very, very bad port. Darksiders II is pretty good too, but it is the very definition of bad port.

Tho I thought THQ buyer was decided a long time ago.

Saint's Row is one of my favorite games of all time. I really hope EA doesn't get their hands on it.

 

They will turn it into a craptacular MMO/Multiplayer/Day 1 DLC/Piece of crap, and ruin it. Just like they did with Spore, the Sims, Mass Effect, Knights of the Old Republic, Need for Speed, and countless other games.

Saints Row, no doubt about it. It's one of my favourite games, and has a surprisingly nice play to it unlike other THQ games. It sucks that they're selling off their IPs, and like UrdiePie said, I hope EA doesn't get their grubby fingers on saints row. That'd be horrid

[Harmonic Revelations 8,835]

It's sad. I liked Saint's Row and a few other titles that THQ made. (My computer could barely run Saint's Row the Third though).

I'm not sure why they'd do that, I thought THQ was doing well.

My Favorite? The Drawn to Life series. But that's finished now... They also did the Finding Nemo game for DS, and the Zoo Tycoon DS series. How do I know? I own them...

[FALCON PUNCH 244]

Loved the warhammer 40k games they mad they were probably the first strategy games I ever played. Damn I played the demo for days.

[Aaramus 449]

The Dawn of War games were fantastic, I only recently got the original games through the THQ pack recently. I was hoping that the bundle would help them out but it obviously didn't.

 

I really hope that EA doesn't get any of the IP's especially not Saints Row or Company of Heroes. I really don't know who I'd like to buy them though, id prefer it if all the devs went indie but that won't happen.

No love for Company of Heroes? I totally love that game.  At least they managed to complete Company of Heroes 2 before going bankrupt :3

I liked Darksiders and Dawn of War. I also liked their logo which I think looked far better than any other companies' logo. I will be forever doomed to have ugly logos on my game case.

They have come a long way since making crummy licenced games on NES. Home Alone, Bart vs the Space Mutants, etc.

They made some boneheaded decisions with that uDraw tablet so I can't argue "the times or changing market trends killed them" like a lot of people use when companies go down. Peripherals for consoles that aren't officially endorsed by the companies that make the system rarely succeed. It wasn't a Wii remote or Wii U pad that was the basis for the system. They are asking devs "Hey stop developing for this safe bet device that everyone who has the system owns and work on this thing with a limited instal base".

[MadDoggyca 710]

they are?
but metro Light 2034 isn't finished, and im still waiting on Home Front 2 as well,

 

though I dont see the big deal over saint row games

 

I would not want to see ea pick any of these up.. EA known for milking the cow dry with a  lot of other companies they acquired.  WestWood, comes to mind, EA online pass.. really ? that's the stupidest thing I seen in a long time. though being only a pc player, there no resale value anywazs, and Im use to steam linking keys. thats beside the point

What have you got against MMO's? I play SWTOR, I think it's pretty good. I haven't played it all that much, but it's been quite fun for the short time I've been playing.

[Scootalove 10,689]

Saints Row, of course because if THQ never made Saints Row there wouldn't be any competition with GTA. I so do not want to see EA buy the rights to Saints Row, its bad enough EA ruined a huge amount of games.

I don't care to much for mmo (mmorpgs) my self. The only real good ones are TorchLight 2 and Guild wars. the others suck the life out of far to many people.. and the sad thing is there willing to spend money on it month..  Really? give me that 15$ I'll find better use for it. and save you for isolation in the mean time.
