THQ Planning To Raid E3 With Sequels

02/19/2010 Written by Matt Baker

Brian Farrel, THQ’s CEO has been outspoken lately about their future releases, including the sequels for Saints Row and Red Faction. Farrel has assured E3 attendees THQ is ready to take E3 by storm with a glance at their future titles.

In an interview with IGN, Farrell has stated that we will be “blown away” at this years E3.

I think we’re going to blow people away at E3. You’ll be seeing Saints Row 3. You’ll be seeing the next Red Faction. You’ll be seeing more of Homefront.

We’ve been talking about it, but we’ll actually show some of our Warhammer 40k MMO, and I think people are going to go, ‘Oh my God. They’ve got their stuff together’, and Saints Row 3 will evidently cause some to remark, ‘This is not your father’s THQ.’

There you have it folks, looks like we’ll be seeing the next Saint’s Row and Red Faction at E3. The sequels were confirmed to be in development last month. Check out PlayStation LifeStyle’s review of the last Red Faction game.

  1. A Warhammer MMO would be so bad ass, those games were fun. I’d be on it.

    Yh THQ, we’ll be blown away with all of your original ideas for new games- NOT!

    To me, a sign of a bad game company is a game company that just releases sequel after sequel to games which aren’t really all that to begin with! Yes EA, i’m looking at you also.

  3. Red Faction 3 (FPS) would be fantastic….

  4. hmmm …. RF3? That could be great – if ya know, we have more story line missions, and maybe a bit of variety in the environment instead of one big red desert. RFG was great, but had those big flaws to it too – I would love to see them fixed, and lets add in some destructible environments along with the buildings.

    @Faythbreaker – The devs for RFG explained that it was originally FPS, but while knocking down buildings you would often times have a chunk of it hit you in the head and kill you because it was difficult to tell what was going on around you, and even more difficult to tell what killed you. As a result they changed it to TPS so you could see everything around the character. I thought it was a good decision.

    An FPS? Wait so you want THQ to turn red faction into another generic FPS game? Did gears of war, Resistance, Halo, Killzone, Battlefield, Call Of Duty not do enough already?! Also it’ll be the fourth game in the series as there’s already been a Red Faction 2 and it wasen’t Guerrila.

    Red Faction 4 should follow what they have already only on earth this time. Prehaps even some kind of space station as orbiting earth for part of the game but my point being it shouldn’t go back to being an FPS as there’s enough on the gaming market,

    Is it too much to ask that I see a game that isn’t a f**king FPS?

    I wish some companies didn’t just focus on E3 for 5/12 months… and focused on their gameeeessssssss

    they don’t just focus on E3 they just like to get together some content to show us what they’ve been busy with. It’s not about focusing all your efforts on one event.
