    This goes out to all gamers. Who is the game company that always gets you excited? Has all your fav games? Maybe has some of your fav gaming moments.

    Two i could name first naughty dog. Have theses guys got a bad game in them? Crash was one of the first ps1 games i played. In fact i owned crash bandicoot before i owned a ps1! Uncharted was great still to play no 4 though. Jak and daxter was good the first one my personal fav. Last of us is jusy epic.

    The other one is sqaure. I grew up playing ff games. When they were sqauresoft these guy imo made pure master pieces. They were so good at there job that people argue in the ff commuinty as to which ff game is the best! Why? Cause they are that damn good. Sqaure then joint with enix to make squareenix and tbh never really been the same. The last truely great ff game was 10. The last one to be made by sqauresoft almost 15 years ago. But ff15 has knocked it out of the park imo

    I have to say they have done alot for gaming. No one can deny that. The nes snes and 64 are so iconic.

    I so badly want to see the switch do well so they can get back to the glory they once had. Wii u wasnt marketed very well at all. And yes the wii did well but was it ever considered with the ps3 and 360?

    There are two developers that I used to believe can simply never fuck up and these days I believe that they will very rarely fuck up, those two being Insomniac Games, of Spyro the Dragon and Ratchet & Clank fame; and Platinum Games, previously known as Clover Games, who are known for Devil May Cry, Viewtiful Joe, Bayonetta, Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance, God Hand, Nier: Automata and, my favorite game of all time, Ôkami.

    Out of those two, I think I can say that Platinum Games is my favorite developer. In the years I've played their games, they've proven almost incapable of releasing a truly bad game, regardless of circumstances. For example, Konami originally developed Metal Gear Rising, but learned that they weren't that good at making a slasher action game, so they handed the game over to Platinum Games, gave them every asset they had done so far and said "it's needs to release in 13 months." Platinum Games could not work with the assets they were given by Konami and so decided to start from scratch. In 13 months, they managed to make a short but extremely solid game from almost scratch and with the last three months of development allegedly being used solely for polishing and bug testing. How the fuck do you even do that?

    Nier: Automata was fucking astonishingly good. I have literally not played a game I was as emotionally invested in since I played Bioshock: Infinite and Last of Us back in 2013.

    But if you have a PS3, I recommend buying a digital copy of Ôkami HD version. Obviously, not everybody will share my opinion of the game, but as somebody who loves Japanese mythology, games and art, that game truly struck me as a masterpiece and as a real work of art.

    Bethesda. At some earlier point I would have said Maxis or BioWare, but EA killed them both. X.X

    Ultimately I'm just in it for TES6. Here's holding out hope that they take more cues from their older games and stop the slide towards excessive simplicity.

    Square Enix and Nintendo. SE not only for Final Fantasy, but for Chrono Trigger, the Chaos Rings games (especially Chaos Rings 2)...they're just great. And I love the Legend of Zelda and Mario games.

    It's a mobile game I believe, could be wrong tho.

    Another one for SE here. And an honourable mention to Gearbox for the OTT Borderlands series as well.

    There are great producers, like Square Enix, Bethesda and Naughty Dog. But my favorite is Blizzard Entertainment (even if, from a year or two, they are mainly ignoring feedback on World of Warcraft. But their games are still great)

    I love Borderlands, I've been playing through 2, going for all the legendaries(just got Infinity!) Borderlands 3 is gonna be great. Also, has anyone ever watched yoteslaya on Youtube?
    Anyway, I'd have to say some of my favourite producers are 505 Games, Treyarch and Robtop(just for Geometry Dash)

    I'm going to have to go with Naughty Dog as they've had a very consistent track record over the years.

    Bioware I think, or the old Bioware at least. From Mass Effect 1 to 2 and before. Neverwinternights, Kotor, etc. etc.

    Yoteslaya was a borderlands youtuber. Great energetic guy played borderlands so much just had this atmosphere about him that made watching gamers fun again. He died a few years ago in a crash with a train I believe if I remembered correctly. Great loss to the community. Left a hole in everyone's world
