Nice find Andy.

I guess we are all discounting the possible success of Michael Owens. This one can be huge! Nice work.

Regards,

Vic

<<Surprising
in the sense that it clearly showed that there is a place in the market for another snowboarding
game, provided it is as polished and playable as this one. In fact, rumours were bound that Sony
itself was making frequent visits to the THQ stand to check it out. So, will this be better than
Cool Boarders 4- You better believe it!>>

Btw, Cool Boarders 3 sold 500,000 copies.

<<One of THQ's strengths
is knowing when to cut their losses and move on.>>

A good point and we should remember that last year in Q4 THQ expensed $.20 in cancelled games. Ie, Q4 was really much higher than reported this year. I don't think we've got as much deadwood (or should I say, Dead Unity) this year, so that is a further help to Q4, THQ's biggest quarter ever.

Let's close that gap tomorrow and get the ninnies out of the stock so the rest of us can get rich this fall and of course, even richer next year.
