THQ sells better than expected

Posted on Thursday, 28 October 2004 by Speed, source: Fragland
THQ have presented their Q2 financial results and overall it seems they had underestimated sales of their games
"Our better-than-expected results this quarter were driven by the outstanding performance of new releases `Warhammer(R) 40,000: Dawn of War(TM)', `WWE(TM) Day of Reckoning(TM)', and `Full Spectrum Warrior(TM)' as well as strong catalog sales in our international territories," said Brian Farrell, president and chief executive officer, THQ. "Both `Warhammer(R) 40,000: Dawn of War(TM)', our first release from recently acquired Relic Entertainment, and 'Full Spectrum Warrior(TM)' underscore our strategy of gaining share against the core gamer. We are extremely pleased with `Warhammer(R) 40,000: Dawn of War(TM)', which ranks as a top-selling title in multiple territories and we look forward to more ground-breaking games from Relic and our deep internal development studio organization."
I wonder how you can underestimate a game like Dawn of War :)
