Danny Bilson talks about the 'new THQ'
“We’ve downsized, but what we downsized down to are really big core titles and really strong family titles. Now, I’m not going to pretend it was just reducing games that weren’t as good; we shut some very good studios, some AAA studios even, but we had to reduce the portfolio to a manageable level. You’re going to see and you have seen a number of dates slip in games. I would call that the transition from ‘old THQ’ to ‘new THQ.’ New THQ says to compete in this environment, you can only compete at the highest level – at the highest level in big titles, where we’re spending a lot of money. So what you saw these kids lining up for [potential work with us], I’d like to think and I believe… are some unbelievable games.” - Danny Bilson, THQ
