2K Games CEO Strauss Zelnick gives a harsh comment on gaming company THQ: http://www.gameinfor...-have-long.aspx

Not gonna lie, that was pretty rude. IMo what he says about recent THQ games is true, doesn't give him the right to bash another company like that.I know thr update says he apologizes but still.

THQ doesn't look like it's going away anytime soon. Maybe these are two rival companies?

Hi, my name is Alph. I live on a planet named Koppai. I am famous for saving my planet from starvation. My best friends are Brittany and Captain Olimar, NOT Captain Charlie. I like surfing the KopNet and playing Kopetball.

Yes but again IMO I think he is right about THQ's recent games tbh, they just haven' tbeen selling well and a good amount of them just havent been "up to snuff" persay. But still it was inappropriate and it was a good thing he apologized.

I don't really see a problem. He's right, and THQ games do suck. d=

Wow.

I'm surprised that everyone's gotten up all on the offensive... again..

Would this really be an industry if everyone and their competitor didn't give each other criticism?

I would have to say THQ games are lacking in quality, and he's right about how they just make a game about WWE or UFC or base it off movies(which are rushed).
I think that saying the studio will be gone in 6 months is a way to harsh, i would be surprised if the studio shut down in 3-4 years because they seem to be doing fine.

Thq is one of my favorite studios i don't understand how people overlook red faction and saints row. Those series are reason enough for thq to need to stay around.

Not to mention the ufc games are well made.

Well, THQ didn't lose anything here and 2k Games lost a lot of respect from a lot of gamers.
Their loss, I guess.
I don't even like THQ, but still, Idc, it's their own loss.
All is well now though.
You learn from your mistakes.

I guess, but not really.

T2, EA, Activision all rivals.
THQ makes the television industry into games mostly. But they make some games that rival T2 like Saints Row vs. GTA.
