Relic and coH 2 would be a good buy nonetheless with a game just a few months off before it is done.
Wouldn't it make sense for pretty much any publishing company to pick up THQ at a fair price seeing as there are several pretty much completed games (South park, CoH2, Metro Last Light) in THQ's possession about to be released? If you are willing to bet that you get $x amount of profit from those games, buying THQ for anything under that is essentially a risk-less purchase.
