Probably not, but it might help them much enought to let them release the games they're currently working on, so hopefully they can cuntinue after that.

Most likely not, but I think it's a heads up for them.

The reason they're doing this is to get people interested in their IPs as they have Metro: Last Light and Company of Heros 2 releasing in 2013.

Unlikely, but Saints Row is definitely a great game. :)

There's speculation that the recent jolt in THQ's stock value might have been due to the Humble Bundle. That is, the creation and popularity of the bundle (as well as the potential for driving further sales) could have caused increased consumer confidence in the company.

Whether that speculation is accurate or not (nobody truly speaks for the market,) the stock value has risen.

Most likely it is accurate, It' has definitely drawn attention to THQ, DLC Sales for SR 3 might see a little spike soon too. but that's still not enough to raise the money THQ needs.
Also, i am mad at myself, i should have bought some stock before the humble bundle.

It could help, but it probably should happen more often if they want to survive...

It is really popular, but wouldnt that cause less people buying their stuff as many already have it?

i for instance only had Titan Quest and Dawn of War. I didn't know they would be in the Bundle in the first place though.
The interesting thing is, it didn't only raise a few bucks for THQ, but also raised the stockvalue by 40% because of all the lot of love. We may have a way of distribution that other major publishers might also try.
Seems to be especially interesting to get a little money out of the Backcatalog which some Publishers have.

well, at least they proved that they are not afraid to try a newy way of distribution. if i were a investor, i would consider a few things now.

no... but if they play it right it may be a first one of the many steps they have to make to save themselves...

I don't think it'll save them in terms of money, as in the money generated from this, but it brings them back into the public eye you know. Lotta publicity for themselves and each of the games in the bundle. Plus, stock in THQ has already risen by 40% because of this.
