Fav game developer?
 
I was looking through my stack of games over the holiday and i've come to the conclusion that without me knowing, my fav is without a doubt. Capcom

I've got/previously owned all of the big games they've brought out and Devil My Cry 3 is probably one of my favourite platforms ever!

I just bought a used copy of Onimusha 3 and it's awesome

Of course there's the Resident Evil series

Oh and a little game called Streetfighter

So Capcom has:

Devil May Cry series
Onimusha series
RE series
Streetfighter series

Plus i'm sure there's others that i'm missing out.

Can you think of a list stronger than that!

Yeah Capcom but Konami probably comes in a close second.

JiM PolPot v.W.o. 01-09-2006 05:47 AM

Rockstar and Id are good as well. They don't have as many games as Capcom, but they do have some of the best games in history between them (Doom, Quake, GTA 3, etc).

The Cerebral Assassin 01-09-2006 08:17 AM

My top five.

1. Konami
2. LucasArts
3. Ubisoft
4. Bungie
5. Capcom

Capcom, easily. This one requires no thought for me.

Dorkchop 01-09-2006 10:40 AM

I like Capcom
I like Rockstar
I like THQ (normally)

Funky Fly 01-09-2006 02:07 PM

Nintendo, by miles.

You lot didn't forget about such series as Super Mario Bros., Super Smash Bros., Legend of Zelda, Metroid, Super Mario *insert sport*, etc, etc, did you?

Capcom.

Most of those franchises suck. :p

Destor 01-09-2006 04:47 PM

Nintendo (for the reasons Funky mentioned [fuck you KK]) & Sony (Shadow of the Colossus and Ico; nuff said.)

When you have to bring up Mario Tennis/Golf/Whatever and such...

...You've pretty much admitted defeat.

While Nintendo has some good series, it's had some shit series as well.

Turbine Entertainment and Blizzard. Not a huge fan of some stuff Blizzard does, but overall they have fucking great games.

Fryza 01-11-2006 03:27 PM

KOEI <3

Bad Company 01-11-2006 03:56 PM

Sierra

RBM 01-11-2006 07:22 PM

Blizzard.

The Warcraft series
The Diablo series
Starcraft
World of Warcraft

Nothing else comes even remotely close to the amount of pure hours of entertainment these particular games gave me.

Hell, even Rock N Roll Racing and The Lost Vikings were solid SNES games back in the day.

D Mac 01-12-2006 01:37 AM

Acclaim :shifty:

road doggy dogg 01-12-2006 03:48 PM

WTF. How can you list Capcom and fail to mention Mega Man? Failure.


Anyway, for me, in no real order:

Capcom (Megaman, Street Fighter)
Nintendo (Mario, Metroid, Zelda)
Maxis (Sim City, all the "Sim" spin-offs)
Blizzard (Warcraft, Starcraft, Diablo)
Rare (Donkey Kong, Goldeneye, Perfect Dark)
Square (Final Fantasy)


Keeping in mind I'm not exactly sure what qualifies as a developer, but those names pretty much go hand-in-hand with the games so w/e, good enough for me

Funky Fly 01-12-2006 03:49 PM

How is the new Perfect Dark? Rare hasn't done anything worthwile since they left Nintendo's camp.

road doggy dogg 01-12-2006 03:53 PM

Never played the new one. And yeah I was referring to Rare's earlier stuff. Goldeneye/PD are great, and the DK franchise is golden. Win-win.

Kapoutman 01-12-2006 11:21 PM

Nintendo.

Requiem 01-12-2006 11:30 PM

Didn't care for the new Perfect Dark. Too many annoying things about it. Rare was awesome in the nintendo days.

McDoogle 01-12-2006 11:35 PM

BioWare is pretty awsome as well interms of RPG games.

No shit. One of the greatest franchises ever.

Regardless, I still have to go with Nintendo. While other companies may come out with more great games, none of them can even touch the genius of the Zelda, Metroid, or Mario series.

And Fuck you Kane Knight. You ever play Mario sports games with a bunch of friends? Some of the best multiplayer experiences ever right there.

Fignuts 01-13-2006 12:48 AM

Also, how is RDD the only person to mention SquareEnix?

Final Fantasy?

Dragon Quest?

Chrono fucking Trigger?

MVP 01-13-2006 12:48 PM

Nintendo, Square-Enix, Rare, EA, Capcom, Blizzard

darkpower 01-20-2006 02:54 AM

  • Square-Enix: Final Fantasy franchise (even Final Fantasy XI), Brave Fencer Musashi, Kingdom Hearts
  • Capcom: MegaMan, Resident Evil, their early Disney games (yeah, those older ones WERE quite good)
  • Konami: Metal Gear franchise (even before MGS), Castlevania, the early Ninja Turtle games (not the crap they are making now)
  • Ubi-Soft: Splinter Cell, Beyond Good & Evil (are we EVER gonna get a sequal of BG&E?)
  • THQ: The WWE Games (surprised no one mentioned these guys yet)
  • Majesco: Bloodrayne
  • MAXIS: The Sims, Simcity

Fryza 01-20-2006 11:26 PM

Majesco... Forgot about them.

Phantom Dust = Best XBox game ever.

Acclaim has gone bankrupt.

Dorkchop 01-21-2006 10:43 PM

After buying a DS, I go with Nintendo. There are way too many games I love for it.
