THQ has filed for chapter 13 bankruptcy, basically this means after all the efforts of all the sales and all that they still could not get the money together, its sad to see such a good independant games company die but what will happen to any other games such as Saints Row?. Im sure that another company would pick it up but which one, could Rockstar now be controlling Saints Row, or could Bethesda, or would it be the game killers themselfes Activison, who knows but THQ death sucks.

Merry Christmas everyone.

Whoever takes over the games i dont see any of them making them as over the top, THQ did say while making saints row 3 they were begining saints row 4, but i dont see any other company being imaginitve as they were. I think we all died a little inside when we saw the news :/.

That would always be milked, my guess is that it would be Activision who would make a deal with WWE, but for other games like Darksiders and Sants Row well i dont know aboout them at all.

THQ has now been offically shut down, here is the list of who gets what.
Quote:
distribution is as follows:

Sega gets Relic Entertainment (as Jim discussed earlier today)
Koch Media gets Volition, Inc. (Saints Row) and Metro
Crytek gets Homefront
Take 2 gets Turtle Rock Studios' "Evolve"
Ubisoft gets THQ Montreal and South Park

If you are wondering where Darksiders developer Vigil Games is in all of this, there were unfortunately no bids for the studio, forcing a complete closure.

I was thinking too large of a game to be left unsold, someone probably will pick it up later, they would sell the franchise instead of the company.

Yeah, we shall have to see i suppose, all though DS didn't have a massive following, the fans of DS did all buy the games so the fans that are there always bought all the games that they released so it should be a good investment but oh well :/ .
