JackieChan December 20, 2012 Share JackieChan GC Alumni December 20, 2012 Hm... guess that THQ Humble Bundle didn't help them out very much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biggs December 20, 2012 Share Biggs GC Alumni December 20, 2012 Actually, the article said that THQ's stock grew 40% as a result of that humble bundle. Not too shabby... but apparently still shabby enough for them to declare bankruptcy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amertrash December 20, 2012 Share amertrash Member December 20, 2012 Wiki has a nice break down of their history, they've been hurting since 2009. They made 5 million on the Humble Bundle, but they also reported a net loss $240 million in 2012. They seem rather buggered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kuma December 20, 2012 Author Share Kuma Member December 20, 2012 So why actually did went to bankruptcy? Too much money spent into developing game(s) and too little selling them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VooDooPC December 20, 2012 Share VooDooPC Member December 20, 2012 From what I read months ago, if they didn't pour so much money into the uDraw Tablet they wouldn't have the money problems they do now. Or should I say the NO money problems they have now? Zing! ...sorry, that was bad... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still just a chunk of their problems tho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
