THQ and SimBin are no longer working together on the GTR Xbox 360 videogame. Our focus within the racing genre is continuing to build THQ's internally developed Stuntman, Juiced and MX franchises.THQ spokesperson

They dropped one of the best racing sims out there, in favor of a sequel to Juiced , casual mediocre ricer. In Juiced 2 you'll be able to change the color of the drivers' socks.

And a sequel to the now five year old Stuntman. You all saw the demonstrations on On The Spot right? Pretty simplistic physics, yet it seems to be all about annoying trial and error.

I do not understand how these publishers think. They had the chance to build a great franchise and instead wastes money on rubbish that'll never make a name for itself. Oh well, their loss. I'm sure another publisher will pick it up.

Between Company of Heroes, Supreme Commander, and STALKER, I'm currently liking them a lot. I am biased, however: I live within six miles of their headquarters.

Probably not, they spent all of their HR budget on organ grinders and monkeys.

I may be safe, but it's darn noisy over here...

In all seriousness, THQ is like most publishers: they have some great games (the aforementioned ones) and some terrible ones. What makes them different from other publishers on the market?

I think publishers get bashed far too often around here. They're often the fall guys for any gamer's frustrations.

They dropped one of the best racing sims out there, in favor of a sequel to Juiced , casual mediocre ricer. In Juiced 2 you'll be able to change the color of the drivers' socks.

And a sequel to the now five year old Stuntman. You all saw the demonstrations on On The Spot right? Pretty simplistic physics, yet it seems to be all about annoying trial and error.

I do not understand how these publishers think. They had the chance to build a great franchise and instead wastes money on rubbish that'll never make a name for itself. Oh well, their loss. I'm sure another publisher will pick it up.

 

Whoever made this decsion should be shot! what were thinking, GTR 2 is by far my favourite racer atm, juiced was a complete flop, OMFG idiots!

they are focusing on their 1st party games, games they have the most money invested in, yeah GTR might be a better game but they might not stand to make alot of money off of it, who knows what the deal was behind the scenes...there is prob a reason they dropped it

I agree, there great on the PC side. I'm loving all those games right now. I could care less about Juiced, I want another Midnight Club.

THQ is doing great right now with PC games. But they've always provided the casual junk console games that sell decently because of image but are no good to hardcore people.
