THQ may be dead.

Looks like, if this is true, THQ is all but done for.

Also Dark Millennium Online canceled...

And now the future of Relic and Volition is in doubt. Its starting to feel like in a couple of years the only publishers will be EA and Activision...

I'm...I'm gonna just go be alone. ._.

NO, MAH RELIC ENTERTAINMENT NEEDS MONEY

I'm starting to wonder if we are going to see a crash soon.

Oh no...

Relic too?

NO! Not fair. I was into DMO the moment they announced it.

My greatest fear is EA will buy them out and merge them with Bioware to work on the new C&C and not Dawn of War

Ah, THQ... they made... uhh... that game... what was it called? Nope, drawing a blank.

They are a publisher. They've made some boneheaded decisions but are the owner of some very good studios.

Namely Volition Relic Vigil Studios

With THQ going under these studios will either sink with the company or be bought out and absorbed by other publishers. And that almost never goes well. COUGHWESTWOODCOUGH

No no no no no no no no NO!

As far as mainstream publishers go, they were my favorite. Goddamit!

The Emperor Protects.

With InfogramesAtari going down the shitter, that might be more true than you think. (well, atleast 2K is still doing well)

Well can't say we should not have seen this coming.

FUCK.

There goes any chance of Space Marine II, and very possibly Dawn of War III.

Unless Relic gets picked up by a good publisher.

Damn, so it's been like this for a while then. I really hope this doesn't become a trend.

What the hell happened to crash their sales?

The economy.

Homefront being underwhelming probably hurt.

And they are just not big enough to survive this current video game industry. You are either huge and keep on trucking through the tough times, or are small enough to not need lots of cash.

Okay looking at the Wikipedia page, there IS a chance they might still release Dawn of War III. Since it's not a 2014 game and isn't Dark Millennium.

Wait, I thought Saints Row the Third did really well this year.

Too little too late, from the looks of it.

Sponge Bob Battle For Bikini Bottom, Sonic Advance 3, Recenge of the Flying Dutchman, Sonic Battle, Ratatouille, I'm going to miss these guys. They made my childhood.

Wut.
