Pick your favourite game Dev, and post it for all the world to see, you could say why, who and what you're waiting for...

Me, i like Ubisoft, simply because despite them making a wide variety of games, the Tom clancy series remains a symbol of excellent modern combat for me, which is precisely what i like...

(BTW anyone who says bungie...)

Favorite game developer hmmm well I'd have to go with Id Software just because there has never been games like DOOM and Wolfenstein 3D they're so awesome. Remedy as well just because they made my favorite game of all time Max Payne.

I hate ubisoft. They are the king of spamming crap. You thought EA was the king? No, it's Ubisoft. As for developers, I'll have to say Nintendo. They have masterfully crafted my most cherished titles.

I'm going with Ubisoft because they've made my favorite game(s) and their based out of Canada(Montreal)tsylord

Actually Montreal is just one of their dev studios. They also have studios in Shang Hai and soon to be Singapore. Their home base is in France I believe.

Bioware, every console game they've made has been amazing. I don't play PC games so I'm not judging them on those even though they're probably just as great

Epic Games, hands down for the creation of Gears of War and the Unreal Engine. They're fantastic in every respect. Back in the days, I really like what Rareware was doing with the Nintendo 64. They set the bar in the gaming industry with games like Goldeneye: 007, with an extremely addictive gameplay and multiplayer. And other great titles like Banjo-Kazooie (sp?), Perfect Dark 64, really set the tone for the consoles back then. But now that we're in the next-gen era, it would have to be Epic Games.

It's a toss up between Infinity Ward (Call of Duty, Call of Duty 2, Call of Duty 4) and Pandemic (Star Wars Battlefront 1 & 2, Mercenaries).

Mine would be Blizzard.

They always make good games that i would almost want to play over games that come out today. Then again i love the RTS genre.

I would say that Rare comes in second because they are one amazing developer (even if PDZ wasn't as good as the classic Perfect Dark).

My third choice is hard to say... It would probably be between Bethesda, SquareSoft (before Enix), and Bioware. All are amazing RPG developers, but i think Bethesda is in the lead right now.

Their China (i think it is china) studio isn't too bad either though. I will agree though that their Montreal studio is their best.

I don't have one. It was probably Bioware for a while, but then they came out with JE, which was aight, but not, IMO, great, and ME left me with the same sort of feeling as well.

I'm going to go with big huge games,firaxis games,and bethesda softworks because they have really made inroads in providing really excellent titles for the p.c,they make games I like, are headed by experienced teams who worked on many well known p.c and console titles,and they make ambitious,fun titles that I feel keep you hooked for many years after you play them.

I'm gonna call this one a thee way tie. Well, no, it's not a tie, but they're very close.

1. Infinity Ward - The entire CoD series (excluding the bastard child. Let's not speak of that one, for it was not made by IW)

2. Lionhead Studios -Black & White is one of my alltime favorite series, and Fable is the only RPG that I could ever play and enjoy.

3. Epic Games - Not so much for GoW as for the Unreal Engine and the Unreal series. Although I concede the point that Gears of War had an amazing campaign. Am I the only one that noticed that they have one set of games which is purely made of multiplayer, and then another which is really only good for single player (I don't care what you say, GoW multiplayer makes me puke)

GOW has ok multiplayer IMO, but look at the amount of people still playing and they'll tell you otherwise

Probably Rockstar games. Those guys do a fantastic job. Though, Illusion Softworks (now know as 2k Czech) are awesome to. Because of Mafia of course.

Rare is my favorite game developer. Yeah, their games may take forever and a day to be released but all of them are high quality stuff (except for PDZ, that game stunk.) They practically made the N64 what it was and I can't wait to see what they do with Banjo-Kazooie 3 later this year.

This is easy... It has to be Electronic Arts... they are just a powerhouse of a game company and they have way too many of the top titles of course making so many games gives you some mediocre titles also but overall you have to give them this award.
