>>How do you find time to work, do Market Gems, and answer so many like me.<<

You did not read the part about him working on top secret projects and artificial intelligence projects and neural nets?
Although I think its a cult gang or just clones myself with connections to the undernet..

Anyway THQI is going to have a hard time comming up with something to replace all that lost revenue. Comming up with hit titles is no joke, Mostly its hit and miss and its very hard to keep up. For every game that actually comes out 10 are thrown out the window. And even the ones that come out are not what they started out to be, Except in cases where there was real pre defined planning based on a concept like wrestling or hockey etc. This is why there are so many sequels. Once a hit, you can expect the theme to be worth a few more points.
What ever happened to lemmings, archon, loderunner, packman and a lot of others which were very addictive. Look at all the good companies on the way sides too. I think there are 3 companies around from when I was working in the industry. ERTS, BROD and AKLM, maybe microprose but thats an iffy, I was saying before THQI is speculative at this point but at a certain price its worth it.

<<THQI Today they announced Q1 earnings which exceeded estimates by 150%>>

Andrew,

I follow this one closely. My take is that WCW products have been
a known factor in the past while games in the pipeline is an
unknown factor. And, will those unknown games make up the
88% of revenue lost. On the other hand, they have time on their
side. Since you are in from 7.50, you'll be o.k. but I personally
wouldn't add now.

Just my thoughts.
Tom
