THQ's Stock Continues To Fall
Our economy has produced some rough rides for a lot of people this past year, but for THQ it looks like things are getting bumpier. Gamesindustry.biz recently reported that the game publisher’s stock took a dive of 6.5 percent yesterday. Worse still, since last weeks WWE/Jakks Pacific announcement the company’s stock has taken a dip of 12 per cent. It looks like THQ isn’t alone either. Both EA and Activision Blizzard have seen their shares drop 1.3 percent and 4.3 percent respectively.
Hopefully Smackdown vs. Raw 2010 sells well over the holidays and THQ resolves it’s legal business with Jakk’s soon, because it looks like the company could use a break. We think if THQ just releases another UFC title everything should turn around for them, but we’re only saying that because we want to see another UFC title.
It couldn’t hurt though.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
