THQ memo asks employees to pack up today

4.8
Employees of THQ's corporate HQ and Vigil studio will stop working for the bankrupt publisher today. In a memo obtained by sources, employees received a "frequently asked questions" memo about the end of their employment.

The memo states that employees should remove all of their personal items by the end of the day, as access to the building will no longer be available. Employees will be paid through today, have health insurance until January 31, with severance and leftover vacation pay yet to be announced. All THQ stock is now worthless.

DeadlyDasher Call of Duty did this.


LOL

How does that even compare? Look at Minecraft, Battlefield 3, Skyrim, GTA etc

All these big time games which produce Millions of dollars in sales, and you say COD did this to THQ..


Call of Duty is outselling all those, come again.
COD is the same game over and over you guys are the stupid ones who buy into it so its your fault.


It's fun, simple as that. They change the maps, and weapons, and keep the core mechanics that make COD fun, no need to fix what isn't broken. And you can say how much you hate it, and how broken it is. But sadly, millions of other people enjoy it just the way it is.

And I play Battlefield, Halo, Farcry, Counterstrike: GO, you mad?


It's not fun, its mindless crap


If it was mindless, everyone would be an MLG pro competing in tournaments. But it's easy to tell a bad player from a good player.

Try again.


The thing is there aren't any bad players lawl.

You guys are acting like a video game caused a publisher to go bankrupt. Look at the economy, look at the prices of keeping a multi-million dollar company running.

Wow! So many great games were produced by this company, all gone to waste. I hope they built themselves back up.
