ohhh shitttt this is going to be amazing
Well, if this is inevitable, at least it's them and not a company like Activision.
Before we all get our hopes up, let's think about this logically. THQ's assets are worth [I]at least[/I] $60 million, and are likely to be sold during the auction for over a $100 million in total. Double Fine doesn't have that kind of capital, so buying out everything is a no go, and they're unlikely to be able to compete with the publishers on the major IPs and licenses. So what exactly would they be aiming for?
Its a shame its not likely, Double Fine is double great.
Why is this amazing news again?
