THQ exec lands at MTV, gears up for world domination
June 29th, 2009 Posted in Business
Jumping ship from THQ, Scott Guthrie, former executive vice president at the popular publisher, has landed at MTV Games, having been labeled its new executive vice president and general manager.
MTV Games also announced former SCEA sales and merchandise director David Cox as its senior VP of sales.
The company has recently stepped up its efforts to break into the gaming biz, having acquired Harmonix and working closely with Jerry Bruckheimer’s games company. It’s now one of the top five game publishers and is host to the popular Rock Band franchise.
So, what exactly is the company up to these days? Another band-themed Rock Band, some action game, or a totally new game?
