Forums - Gaming - THQ cancels some titles

I read this article on the german tech-news site Heise: http://www.heise.de/newsticker/meldung/102505 Sorry if someone already posted it. I try a mediocre translation of the content: THQ, a californian producer of games for PC and console, announced in the preview for the actual financial quarter the stop for some game-titles. That includes the PS3-version of "Frontlines: Fuel of War" developed by Kaos Studios and the PS2-version of "Destroy All Humans: Big Willy Unleashed" developed by Locomotive Games. Additionally the studio Concrete games will be closed. It worked on two games for THQ, they will be released now in the financial year 2010. Some employees of Concrete should get a new job at THQ. For the actual quarter THQ decreased it's sales expectancy to 200 million dollar from previous 240 million dollar. Reason are the bad sales of some game-titles.

About time they did some house keeping. THQ was becoming more and more of a joke.

The closing of concrete killed Stuntman and Juiced franchises.

I suppose they wanted to do stuff that PS2 couldn't for Destroy all Humans 3...

As for PS3, I understand it had a lot to do with the state of UE3 during PS3 during development.
