The only one I could think of was Bungie, but they left Microsoft.

I'm not trying to cause flaming or hate here, nor am I even remotely trying to bash the studios, but I don't even know half of them and what they created for the 360. Sony, on the other hand, have first-party studios well known by the hardcore gaming community (Sony Santa Monica, Team ICO, Naughty Dog, Insomniac Games, etc.). Why? I'm curious to know.

I only recognized 2 that you listed...so what point did you even make?

I could recognize 4 under Microsoft, so it comes down to which system you own, does it not?

I'm not trying to flame, but you'll know them if you buy them. You see their logos at the beginning of every game, and you can't skip them, so that's what I'm getting at for "what system you have"

Sony main focus is first party developing. Look at how much money they invest on new exclusive IPs and developing the ones they have. MS invests more money on buying timed exclusives and DLC.

We can't forget that Sony's 1st party dev teams were established long before MS's.

Sony has more first party, and more well known first party simply because of the success of the playstation brand. During the PS1 days, Sony dominated = lots of money = bought studios. Same with PS2, dominated = lots of money = bought studios. MS just entered last gen, and as i said, sony dominated, and MS was losing money so they couldnt affort to buy studios like they may have wanted to. Enter this gen, sony had 2 gens to build studios because they were on top, MS barely scraped by, but this gen is different, so i look for MS to buy some studios next year. Fanboys will say "MS has billions of dollars", but the truth is, the gaming division is its own branch, and has budgets, revenues, and its own obligations. I cant just take from MS's bank account.

lol, they didnt "leave" microsoft. Microsoft OWNED them, they just allowed bungie to go independent again because it was best for the studio. The deal was, MS let them go indy, and MS still has first rights to anything they develop.

The guys from BurgerKing (Blitz Games) have just been hired as a 360 1st Party! See, there you go TC!

I don't know what they are cookin' (lol), but it should be great. This was their last three games before they were hired!

I could go on and on, but I think it's basically been answerd, so I would prefer to put a joke in this thread. :P

He said well known by "The hardcore gaming community". Oh well, guess you just aren't hardcore enough to know those 4 developers.

Santa Monica- God of War series

Team ICO- ICO, Shadow of Colossus, and the upcoming The Last Guardian

Naughty Dog- Early Crash Bandicoot games, Jak and Daxter series, and Uncharted 1 and 2

Insomniac- Spyro series, Ratchet and Clank series, Resistance series

There's also Polyphony Digital that does all of the Gran Turismo's

Now you can be hardcre too!

I like the 360 first party developers, they make pretty unique games and most of them are usually a success.
