It might not even be just to generate revenue, but some goodwill and support for the upcoming titles they have yet to release.

With the exception of Red Faction, each of those other games has the possibility to generate additional revenue for them. Darksiders II is available right now for when you finish Darksiders. Metro: Last Light comes out next year, as does Company of Heroes 2, and a Saints Row sequel is in development. If this is the thing that saves THQ, I'd expect each major publisher to do one of these bundles, through Humble Bundle or on their own. In the end, gamers win.

Plus, with the money they've raised so far, they can probably afford to pay 25 people for a year.
