• Nordic Games purchased the rights to Darksiders, Red Faction and MX vs. ATV, as well as rights to THQ’s other owned software (Destroy All Humans!, Summoner and more) and licensed software (Marvel Super Hero Squad, Supreme Commander and more) for $4.9 million in total.
• As announced earlier today, Borderlands 2 developer Gearbox Software purchased the rights to the Homeworld franchise, and THQ has now disclosed that the purchase price was $1.35 million.
