it'll be interesting to see if CoH2 gets released.. and if it does , what kind of post sales support is provided.


Weak. Super weak.

No, weak is charging $1 for 3 games that form a franchise that is supposedly the "highest rate RTS of all time".
that is weak.

False marketing is commonplace. Also, they may not be lying. People rate some pretty terrible games much higher than better ones all the time.

Since people can't/won't read:

Company Obtains Commitment for Interim Financing to Fund Operations Without Interruption

All of the company's studios remain open, and all development teams continue. The company remains confident in its existing pipeline of games.

As part of the sale, the company is seeking approval to assume the contracts of these studios, and Clearlake will assume these contracts.
HOLY CHECK!

http://www.4-traders.com/WORLD-WRESTLING-ENTERTAIN-14926/news/World-Wrestling-Entertainment-Inc-WWE-Following-THQ-Bankruptcy-Filing-15659631/


this entire proceeding is becoming an unwieldy multi-headed monster.

we've got ...

Wells Fargo
THQ
the bankruptcy judge
the accounting firm from Centreview
the WWE
the bondholders for the $100 million bond due in August 2014.

with Billionaire Vince on the case...
this is gonna get nasty because THQ owes "Mr. Mcmahon" 45 million smackers!

Don't know why people are hating on Company of Heroes, they're some of the best RTS games ever. At least equal to if not better than SC2.

God dammit, Metro 2033 was the best adventure linear FPS I've played in terms of immersion and graphics.

Was so looking forward to Metro 2034

I am disappointed to read about this because it will hurt competition in the video game indstry if THQ's assets are bought by another big video game company.

Hopefully they can find the finances they need while remaining independent.

interesting first day in court for THQ.

they got a small portion of the loan they requested but their dream world proposal is being questioned.. and with good reason.. THQ has been over promising with overly optimistic sales projects for years.

"Walrath said she wants more details and possibly testimony to support the game-maker’s aggressive sale timeframe."

if you thought the bullshit coming out of THQ senior managements' mouths was bad so far...

the PR Offensive they are about to go will be like a hundred 3 and 3 marines with stim pack & combat shields

Equal or better? What pot are you smoking? Sure the game is good, but its complexity aren't anywhere near Starcraft 2.

Volition and Relic are basically licences to print money. Hell if a publisher picked up the pair of them and said "make Homeworld 3/Freespace 3" they'd be richer than the Nazis.

The rasslin games will probably die with THQ which is a shame. I had a hell of a lot of fun on those games

True. I find CoH and DoW series much more entertaining and complex than SC2.

Many people believe CoH is the superior RTS. I haven't played CoH extensively enough in comparison to SC not to make a biased opinion, however, on pure quality and features, I'd say CoH is definitely the better game.
