This man will be covering it when it happens supposedly

Everything THQ has is up for sale, including Metro: Last Light and Stick of Truth.
Everything that THQ had the right to publish (IE Last Light, Stick of Truth, Warhammer40k) Is being fought over by the owners of their respective IPs.

If the current bids for the studios/IPs exceed 60 million USD then THQ's assets will be sold piecemeal, if it comes under 60 million then Clearlake, who is attempting to purchase wholesale, will take the entirety of their assets and likely gut the company.

Current bidders as we know it are EA, Warner, Double Fine, Ubisoft and an unnamed party. The Auction should be held at 3PM (PST?) sometime today and there will be a sales hearing tomorrow at 9AM (PST?) to conclude the auction.

List of IP's for sale: Homeworld, Company of Heroes, Red Faction, Darksiders, de Blob, Homefront, Saints Row, Destroy All Humans, Stuntman, Big Mutha Truckers, Titan Quest, Juiced, MotoGP titles, MX titles

List of Studios for sale: Relic, THQ Montreal, Volition, Vigil.



So, what do guys think? I'm really hoping we see some faithful acquisitions. I could see Double Fine picking up Destroy All Humans and maybe even Darksiders assuming EA doesn't take either of those from them. I'd be alright with Ubisoft acquiring something like Homeworld provided they make something good with it (lel). Who knows what will happen though~~
