It begins today.

THQ goes up for auction today. Bids are due by 9AM EST. The auction starts at 3PM EST, and results are to be announced at 9:30AM EST tomorrow. Will they be sold off piece by piece? Does EA buy Relic and screw up Company of Heroes? Who picks up Volition and breaks up THQ? Does Nintendo pop out of nowhere and plop down a fat check for everything?

Doomsday predictions start now.

EA should buy them all!

lololololololololololol

Microsoft buys them all. Never uses them. Badosh

All of those Saints Row 4 assets would be perfect for the 720 avatars!

Wow you got a Wii U a FULL year before the rest of us? If you're not using it, could I borrow your time machine?

I just care about 4A.

EA will buy Saint Row. They don't really have a GTA-like game in their portfolio so this would be a great buy for them. And just imagine all the microtransaction BS they could do with it!

Just think.....a year from now this will be Sony. :shock:

Nintendo aren't idiots unlike certain cretins on those boards.

their actions would suggest otherwise. Only an idiot would come up with the idea of making a new console with last gen hardware

when I need to learn how to drive a turtle shell or stomp on a mushroom I'll remember your advice.

Its basically going to be split between EA, WB, and perhaps Microsoft andactivision

No such thing as 720, just like if you went back in time you won't find a 180.

Notice which gaming division has made profits continuously for 30 years or is that too much for your single brain cell to register?

This website speculates about what might go where, just please please god don't let this happen, unless it still goes to PC, then its fine :P

South Park: The Stick of Truth

This is a tough one, and it was suggested that Microsoft could take it on themselves as its also pretty much finished. Theres a bit of credence to that argument to, given Microsoft have only one known platform exclusive game slated for this year: Gear of War: Judgement.

Obviously they have their basket full with the forthcoming Xbox Durango reveal apparently not too far off, but theres a lot of love around this game, and Matt and Trey worked with Microsoft to show off the HD content delivery system of Xbox 360 with the South Park episode Fun Times with Weapons. Outside of Microsoft, Warner Bros would again seem like a decent fit, but there could be all types of license issues with that one. EA and Ubisoft also come to mind, and either would actually probably be a good fit, so its actually a tough one to call.

Please baby Jeebus don't let this become a 360 exclusive

WB buys the whole lot.

There is some talent and good series in THQ. Here is to hoping the Darksiders devs find a good home.

WB buys the whole lot.

TheEpicGoat

I wish, but i highly doubt WB has any interst in a RTS

The only studio i would be worried about is Vigil. Darksiders has not done as well as they would like

An update, the South Park will not be up for sale. SPS has sent a letter, saying thq has no right to sell it, and that they will be buying it back

Really? Doesn't Darksiders sell more than many of their games? And I think it is one of the more popular series THQ has now aside form Saints Row.

Darksiders 2 didn't make a profit, it fell short of the 2 million units it needed, and was another of the reason of the current state of thq
