While many of the licenses, franchises and development teams found new homes, there were a few that are still holding out hope for a lifeline. Check out Jon’s roundup of who has gone where in his feature article.
Amongst all the misery, there have been numerous reminders of some of the great times THQ games have provided over the years. So here’s my tribute to some of the best games I’ve played from THQ over the years on this generation of consoles.
Alex & Mike talk Biomutant, a game from Experiment 101/THQ Nordiq you likely have not heard of. While the AAA side of the industry tends to homogenization and imitative, cinematic presentation, “AA” games remain creative and innovative in 2021. Drawing on inspirations as varied as Dark Souls, third person shooters & kung fu cinema, Biomutant is Ratchet & Clank on acid, developed by a team of 20 people.
Remember THQ? They published such games as Avatar: The Last Airbender, Darksiders I & II, the Destroy All Humans series, Homefront, the Red Faction series, and Saint's Row 1-3. Almost as famous as their games were the THQ marketing stunts, including a Golden Wii.
PlaySation gamers are in for a treat today! Not only did Sony roll out its “Double Discount” PlayStation Store sale, but there’s also a THQ Humbe Bundle PS4 discount happening too!
Metro should be on that list
happy darksiders made the list, but the guy shouldnt complain about the games lacking co-op, vigil had said since darksiders 1 that they want to eventually have co-op but they need to flesh each horseman out, before they realise that.
Maybe whoever gets some of these games will cool down on the DLC. SRT3 is like $40, but the DLC is $82.80 on steam....unless Acti of Square gets it...then it will be even more...
