Just want to know, what's the top pc developers? For me Valve,Blizzard,Bioware... Valve with their great multiplayer FPSes+great single player FPS like HALF LIFE and HALF LIFE 2+EPISODES. Bioware for big Rpgs like KOTOR, BALDUR'S GATE 1 and 2,DRAGON AGE, and MASS EFFECT Blizzard....well you know why...ask korea and even 42 y-old moms
Valve, Bethesda, Lionhead Studios. Well them are my favourite developers. Blizzard just want money. If you think wrong, look at WoW...
I think Bungie is lucky.If other developer make HAlO i'm sure it will be better. As for Blizzard wanting money,i want to tell you that every single developer wants money.
Rockstar for GTA games, Ubisoft for their fantasy games e.g. Beyond Good & Evil, Prince of Persia (which started running on wall which is now seen on Bayonetta) Avatar, etc.
In my opinion, Bioware is a shoe-in for #1 because of it's RPGs. Anno 1404 is the best 4x game I have ever played and gets as perfect a rating as I can give a game from me, so Ubisoft ranks a close second. Blizzard and EA are also in the top 5. As far as old school PC game developers, MicroProse is one of the best of all time.
