THQ is not exploring the unemployment line since operations are continuing normally. please go back to drawing and using the apple products you hate and let me handle the logic.
They filed chapter 11. Thats not "operations are continuing normally".

There is nothing saying that they are laying off people but you don't expect them to not cut costs do you. I would expect them to cut costs and explore new sources of revenue. Labor is just one cost possible to cut. Some have mentioned there was a bloated upper management, if so, they should start there.
