THQ's Rubin - Everyone is beating us up, no more uDraw

GN Version 4.0
How many titles got people walking up on stage at the Xbox conference? Well THQ did. Everyone's out there beating us up, but there we were, along with the big games. And everyone's saying, "Oh, look, Stick of Truth." They're looking forward to it, that could be huge... but "THQ isn't going to make it." There seems to be this disconnect. Metro gets best game shown nominations, but "THQ may not make it." Company of Heroes - nominations, but "THQ isn't going to make it." People are so used to the downward slope that they don't see that it can flatten out. So I'm here to make it flatten out and then turn the corner. - THQ's Jason Rubin

There's no doubt that THQ is getting trashed by analysts and games media. Rubin has a very clear goal for bringing the company back to its successful days. I guess it's just hard for others to see that vision.

Rubin also commented on uDraw, saying that THQ is done with that side of business.

You won't be seeing another uDraw. We're not going to be doing side projects in mobile or casual. You're not going to see that stuff.
