Metro, S.T.A.L.K.E.R., Darksiders,...THQ has plenty of awesome games. Hard to believe a few flops (new Red Faction for example) could bring them down. I enjoyed Homefront and Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine also, guess they just didnt have enough Halo or Call of Duty aspect to them for the mainstream.

Sucks that the gaming industry has become as bad as the music industry now: if it isn't some garbage hyped and sold to pop-culture kids it just isn't considered doing well.
nicely put in a lot of ways. hate seeing great art "dumbed-down" for the masses but it has always been this way and always will be this way. hundreds, even thousands of years ago playwrights would have to change scenes or whole storylines because the audience wasn't pleased enough and the producers would complain about lack of profits. PROFIT!: a curse on human existence & culture but also the guiding light that has drug us out from the forest floors and planted us in this seat of self-examination.
@Morphine_OD no, its the beautiful awesome graphics patched via .ini file, decent working UI, pathetic mouse controls, awesome combat, ALMOST perfect game that's a 9.5. same rating i gave it after my first 4 hour session. it is the best game I've played in quite a while and one of the best i have ever, have been gaming since the intellivision as a kid. sadly the only to experience this 9.5 so far is with edited files and a gamepad.
