"A company laying off employees is never something to be taken lightly, but 240 layoffs is serious business, seriously bad business. Even worse business is stocks below a dollar. THQ officially announced late last week that they were laying off two-hundred and forty employees. This comes after they announced changes to their business strategy, in which they plan to focus on core games, but what really happened and what does it all mean to the gamers? Hopefully I can help answer some of those questions."
Alex & Mike talk Biomutant, a game from Experiment 101/THQ Nordiq you likely have not heard of. While the AAA side of the industry tends to homogenization and imitative, cinematic presentation, “AA” games remain creative and innovative in 2021. Drawing on inspirations as varied as Dark Souls, third person shooters & kung fu cinema, Biomutant is Ratchet & Clank on acid, developed by a team of 20 people.
Remember THQ? They published such games as Avatar: The Last Airbender, Darksiders I & II, the Destroy All Humans series, Homefront, the Red Faction series, and Saint's Row 1-3. Almost as famous as their games were the THQ marketing stunts, including a Golden Wii.
