Zak Woods has the scoop:

The first UFC videogame, titled Undisputed, for the next generation of consoles is currently in development by THQ. But the international developer and publisher of videogames is facing tough financial times.

THQ has lost $334 million dollars this year and their stock prices has fallen from $20 a share to $2 a share.

Now according to Michael Hickey of Janco Partners, the company has a fifty percent chance of going bankrupt (via gamereplays.org).

Currently THQ is trying to save over $220 million next year and are preapring to slash over 600 employees. However, the prognosis remains dark for THQ.

In this day and age filing for Chap 11 seems to be part of day-to-day.  I'm sure they'll be around...
