Video game publisher THQ that only five years ago had a market value of more than $2 billion sold most of its assets at a bankruptcy auction that closed on Tuesday, the Los Angeles Times reported yesterday. Games in development and production studios owned by the Agoura Hills, Calif.-based company were bought by a variety of competitors for a total of $72 million, according to court documents. That exceeded a stalking-horse bid THQ had from private investment firm Clearlake Capital Group, which offered to take the entire company private for $60 million.
