Destructoid (http://www.destructoid.com/red-faction-guerrilla-reaches-one-million-units-shipped-141765.phtml) has info that THQ is doing one hell of a business lately. Their UFC game is doing gangbusters, shipping a total of 2.9 million units so far. Additionally, Red Faction Guerrilla has hit 1 Million units shipped.

Those strong numbers, combined with Red Faction reaching the one million units shipped milestone and the videogame adaptation of Up doing what licensed games do best, resulted in THQ being the "#3 independent publisher in the US and UK" for the company's first fiscal quarter.

I wonder how Darksiders is gonna do...

I hope Darksiders does really well, it looks fantastic. But I really want it to do well because the studio is also working on the Warhammer 40k MMO so I have real high hopes for that one.

Good for them. Those two games deserve the success.

Both good games.

What's sad is how owned even publishers are by hit-driven games. The success of RF:G will allow Darksiders to have a good ad campaign. and so on...
