Petroglyph, Kojima Productions (Metal Gear Solid if i'm not mistaken), and Ubisoft for Silent Hunter 3 and Brothers in Arms.

I picked Nintendo, Esamble, and Microsoft. Why you ask?

 

Nintendo is what got me into playing video games in the first place. When I was a young child I was normal and played outside and didn't think why in the world anyone would want to sit in their house playing games on a TV or computer screen. Even when my friends had SNES I played them a bit, they were fun but I still preferred playing sports and whatnot outside. In fact I remember once when a bunch of my friends and myself were at some ones house all switching turns playing Return of the Jedi for SNES. I was the one who kept trying to pursuade everyone that we should go outside and play rather than do this. Then after a long time the N64 came into being! And I was all like WOW   We finally did get one in 1999. That was when I got my first video game which was SSB and mario Kart and eventually several other games. I still never saw the point of playing games on the computer, I fact I never even knew that there were games on the computer aside from solitare and DOOM which my dad would play sometimes. Then about 2001 I watched my friend play AOE2 when I went to his house one day. and I was like   now there is a reason to play games on the computer. My friend luckily had 2 PCs and a laptop and we and other friends would play LAN games on AOE2 all the time. Heheheh the first time I ever played it I was only in the 2nd age slowly figuring out how to play it when my friend came and crushed my puny civilzation with Imperial age fully upgraded Paladins.  ;D So that was where Esamble came in I eventually got AOE2 for myself and played that then age of mythology and galactic battles grounds. So pretty much Esamble produced my favorite RTS games. Then I picked Microsoft because of Halo........ : DUH! (even though my parents won't let me get the game and I'm 16!!!!! but that didn't stop me from playing it at my friend's houses.)  ;D

The only one I can think of that I missed was Dreamcatcher Games. And cheese, how did you live in the darkness for so long? I/ve been playing video games since I was 5.  ;D

Where's Valve, Blizzard and Square?

Since you were five!? I don't think I even knew what they were when I was 5! when I did learn of the SNES I collectively called all video games "nintendos".

 

;D

 

I tend to think of it as living in the light for so long, cause when you are playing video games you are inside with the blinds closed to reduce glare so technically your "in the dark". And outside you are "in the light"  ;D

Fine... ;D

 

 

HOW COULD YOU BE IN THE LIGHT SO LONG??

;D

 

I dunno, maybe I'm A NORMAL KID AND NOT A NERD LIKE YOU PEOPLE!!!!!!!! just kidding  ;D

 

the most likely explanation is that I have no older siblings. My friend who is the same age as I am has also been playing video games since he was like 5 because he played video games that his older siblings had. My yougest brother has been playing nintendo since he was 4. So I think that is the most likey reason. But enough of this I feel that any second now someone is going come and yell at us for spamming or something.  ;D

Fosh or Ghostly...

Not easy to chosse. At least for me there would be more than 3 as several among the one you made avaible have done great games. No one has a streamed line of production.

Bioware, Petro and Konami 4 the job they've done on the Metal Gear Solid series.

Oh, I did:

 

1. Westwood. Command and Conquer series BEFORE ea took them over.

2. Big Huge Games. Rise of Nations.

3. Activision. Overall quality games.

you put gas powered games twice. theres no the Creative Assembly makers of the Total war games

Oh....

Seriosuly, you missed some of the most influential comapnies out there.  Blizzard made the Warcraft games, Square and all their little sub-companies are the Final Fantasy people (I think) and Valve made Half-life

Yah, I think that list that came from wikipedia is incomplete and/or corrupt. Look It says "Habro" Instead of "Hasbro" Like it's supposed to be. 

:sniff: oh well...another failed poll for me, i'll get it some day... :-\

I'd go with Squaresoft (calling it that because most of the games I liked were made when it was called Squaresoft) first, then Blizzard (Warcraft 2 and StarCraft changed my life lol), then Nintendo (Zelda and Metroid games were amazing).

My favorite game developer is Bethesda Softworks (and i know i havent been on in a while *GASP*)
