      Very opinionated, We Like! While I haven’t played UFC Personal Trainer, I have had similar complaints with more recent THQ titles. The WWE 12 experience was terrible. I found that sad, since it was actually a pretty decent effort. I would have to say that these reasons are probably the main catalyst as to why THQ has had so many financial issues within the past few years. Too many consumers have a long list of complaints that continue to remain unaddressed.
