Where is Sony, Nintendo and Microsoft?!
Some great exclusives going out of the window...
Seriously though, I can TOTALLY see them buying Vigil Games. Especially since Vigil is literally in the same town as Retro Studios.
Brian Crecente from Polygon just tweeted that they will have someone in the courtroom, so we should get some live coverage this time.
Maybe the guy from Distressed Debt is there as well.
Every time someone says Nintendo should buy THQ or a THQ studio or IP a kitten dies, so please stop it.
Why just Nintendo? Sony or Microsoft would be just as bad.Sorry, can I just quote myself again?

Don't have time to read the entire thread, all I care about is if Saints Row and Metro are saved????
Well, Sony and Microsoft's next gen consoles may be able to handle Metro pretty decently, but the Wii U on the other hand...

The game would be exclusive though, which is far worse than being stuck on inferior hardware.Well, Sony and Microsoft's next gen consoles may be able to handle Metro pretty decently, but the Wii U on the other hand...
Well, now that you mention it there are probably more people calling on Nintendo than the other two, but I kind of get the impression that they are only half-serious due to how unlikely it is that Nintendo would actually buy anything.Just because everyone keeps saying Nintendo, even though they are almost assuredly the least likely publisher to do so outside of groups like Majesco and 505 Games.

Again with the Nintendo talk.
There is literally zero indication that Nintendo is bidding or even remotely interested. Fanboy dreams and Nintendo Direct timing won't change that.
Liveblogging from a courtroom. Video games, serious business.

Yes, it is, this is the very definition of serious business.
Yeah I think we've heard before that the Metro rights aren't THQ's to sell, so I would've thought that anyone who picked up Last Light would also have to re-license the rights to be able to sell it.
South Park - THQ wants to sell, Volition is apparently saying no, serious business. Rumour says Ubisoft bought publishing rights.
You definitely have an error in this section.
Oh another rumor is that the WWE license got transferred to EA last week.
Highest bid yesterday, not necessarily winner.So Koch Media is basically Deep Silver? I am surprised they would have deep enough pockets to win Saints Row. I am doubtful of these rumors.
They used AKI for their Def Jam games, but didn't AKI rebrand or something?If this is true please for the love of God don't let EA have any contact with Yukes...

Koch are pretty big dude, they also distribute and publish games in Europe and the same thing with film and software.

Do we know anything about THQ Montreal? I thought they were pretty huge and they must have been working on something. I remember people throwing "1666" around, was that Desilets new game?

I looked at their website before I posted that, we have a different definition of pretty big. Their games include Risen franchise, Sacred franchise, Dead Island, Secret Files, and Lost Horizon. Then they only publish (not considered a core brand) X - Factor, Prison Break, and the X series. I really like X series and Risen, but they are still pretty small even in the PC gaming world. Their movie division appears to be even smaller than that.

Edit: Are THQ San Diego up for auction today? They did a good job with WWE All-Stars.

1666 was the new game from Patrice, we know nothing else besides that.
It is, "1666 Amsterdam". Probably Ubisoft or Warner Bros for this one (they both visited the studio, as Microsoft did too but they finally removed their offer).
Kotaku thought so but Examiner reported that Patrice's game was mentioned separately as an as-yet untitled project.
