22 mill for Volitionm, does that include their IP's?
Anyone wondering Kock Media is Deep Silver. REALLY wish Take 2 would have bought Volition, would have loved a Saints Row game with Rockstar Tech.
Yeah I thought it would have been natch for them to want to get their hands on Saints Row. Dunno how well it bodes with Koch getting it. I suppose only time will tell.
Take 2 would have killed SR if they bought it. Why buy your biggest competitor and keep producing it? But SR barely eats into GTAs sales, so why bother at all?
And, personally, I dislike the GTA tech. The graphics are great but the controls feel off to me. Running feels weird, driving feels terrible, and combat is crap relative to SR. |

If the worst result of this sale is that I have to click launch twice in Steam and uPlay to get into the South Park RPG then I can live with that. The Koch Media purchase is an odd one, I think they're the parent company behind the Dead Island guys. The companies and IP are often two separate things, it would be good to know which companies are being purchased with their respective IP intact or not.
I'd assume the IPs went with the companies, but it's tough to tell, given that some are spelled out as IP and some as company. If anyone bought Volition but not SR I'd be quite surprised. |

| RIP THQ. A shame. It now joins the ranks of Ocean and Microprose. |

See ya, Volition. It's been fun.
Also, I enjoy "Ubisoft agreed to purchase Montreal and South Park." Out of context...
Well Ubisoft employs half the bloody province at this point so maybe.  |

| Shame about Vigil but Darksiders 2 was a bit meh - if that had been before it was released they'd have been snapped up. |
