WCW products, but also 'Quest 64' and the just-announced 'The GranStream Saga' in the role-playing genre, our 'BASS
Masters' game for PlayStation and PC, and of course, our 'RugRats' products for the fall,'' he continued.

Actually I have sold my position yesterday, luckily. I still remember that I said something of closing the gap between $24 and $26 on this thread right after the earning surprise, and quite a few people jumped at me and said good stocks never close the gap, and even compared THQI with DELL. Today's action is sort of closing the gap, although not complete yet. So now I think maybe $24 or so is the safest price to enter. Just my two cents.

Good luck.
