Naughty Dog. I've loved every game of theirs I've played, and they really listen to their community. What a close poll.

*Sigh* People will just spend the thread complaining about how ND doesn't deserve to be there, they really have a lot of haters.TintedEyes
But they don't. Perhaps it's time to remove your tinted spectacles.

I don't think any of the 3 the TC put in the poll would make it into my top 5.

ND. The PS1 era with Crash Bandicoot was great. Bioware and Blizzard don't even make good games.

[QUOTE="Funconsole"]The poll's fail for including Naughty Dog and leaving out Valve. This truly is Cowspot since ND is winning :|TintedEyes
Look who is annoyed a great dev is winning a poll

kind of hard for valve to win a poll if they aren't included on it.

ND is good and all but i would definitely say Valve is better, ND made the good Crash titles and Uncharted but you can't deny the impact Valve has had with all of their titles(or most) being hugely successful and just damn good... Valve won a competition for best dev 2010 anyway so i'd say remove Bioware and put up Valve and even now long into the poll Valve will win.

Go ND! All of their titles since Crash Bandicoot 2 have been freaking orgasmic to me.

naughty dog? the best dev ever? and it's actually winning the poll?

they're on the same level as Bungie nothing else. Blizzard, Bioware, Origin Systems, those are (or in Origin's case were) the best of the best

naughty dog...not so much

seems all it takes these days is one good game to be called the best dev ever

[QUOTE="Unnatural101"]

Not only have Naughty Dog been making games since the 80's across multiple platforms...

But they have been made multiple genres of games, and have been steady with lots of critical acclaim.

If you can sustain that type of level for a whole lot of years, you too can be among those considered great

FatCatPatRat

you should probably learnw what critical acclaim is, becuase the only game they've made thats critically acclaimed is Uncharted 2.

Your reasoning suggests Nintendo are far more deserving to be on the list than ND. Lets have a look at their resume?

  • Starting making games in the 1970s
  • Have not only made games but gaming consoles (Its the Sony PS3, not the ND PS3)
  • SAVED THE FRICKING NORTH AMERICAN GAMING INDUSTRY WITH THE NES
  • Have made SO MANY MORE critically acclaimed games than ND
  • And since your love for them is clearly only based on Uncharted series, both SMG 1 and SMG 2 have far outranked them this gen in reviews and sales
  • And finally, if you want to talk variety, Nintendo have developed 2D and 3D platformers, action adventures, puzzle games, shooting games, kart racing games, simulation games and stragedy games

Actually I think Nintendo has developed games in every genre except WRPG, MMOs, and Sandbox games (Maybe not because they did partner with DMA Design when they made Body Harvest on the N64 they later went on to be known as Rockstar North).

I also think that people are forgetting that a lot of Naughty dog's first games were either mediocre or terrible (way of the warrior anyone?)

Bungie is the greatest, and Microsoft were geniuses for taking them from Apple.
