The Ten Top Video Game Developers

Tribune writes: "Well, there are a lot of video game developers out there. A lot of good, but even more bad. Some are massive corporations, some are in a mother’s basement. Throwing 10 developers into one list was not easy. The popularity of the game developers listed are not gauged by their popularity, but their games."

Bethesda has made nothing but quality titles for almost 7 years, Skyrim is right around the corner and i can't hold it anymore.

I don't think so. Wet sucked big fat balls, and wasn't even close to being as wet as my girl. :) jk. Just thought I'd use the pun, it was perfect. :)

Ziriux4585d ago

If it had a $29.99 price attached to it than it would have been a decent game, other wise I was disappointed in Bethesda with the crap they released there.

Where...the...F*CK IS TEAM ICO?!

Laxman2164585d ago

Dude, Bethesda didnt make WET, Artifical Mind and Movement (sometimes refered to as A2M) did.

There's some interesting choices in here. Bethesda and Valve seem pretty typical choices but then they're alongside Thatgamecompany and NIS. I like that these guys got some attention too :).

Cinotix4585d ago

Especially NIS, I mean their quirky sure, but I liked their games, call me weird and I am but some of their games are more addictive than these big RPG's and adventure games. :)

masteroftheclaw4585d ago

I think NIS has done pretty well these last few years. Atlus is becoming "big" in a way now and NIS is taking the place of the niche Japanese company. That's just my take on it, but it's interesting how these changes have taken place all within one console generation.

zerocrossing4585d ago

Nice list! glad to see some niche companies getting much deserved attention =)

tiffac0084585d ago

When I saw NIS, Atlus and Thatgamecompany on the list. It put a smile on my face.

I feel Level-5 should be an honorable mention too.

Singu1arity4585d ago

I like unconventional picks, but I know Naughty Dog, Bethesda, Valve, Square Enix, and this prompted me to recall Game Freak from my days of Pokemon obsession. I wouldn't know any of the others from Adam.

EKWB reportedly plagued with financial disarray many gaming pc's left without parts

EK Cooling allegedly has slipped itself into a hot soup of seemingly endless financial woes, where it has not paid its staff, suppliers, and contractors for many months as the company is facing liquidity problems and a surplus of inventory left unsold, stuck in the warehouse for a more extended period. Gamers Nexus investigated these claims made by former and current personnel, where he found trails of unpaid bills lasting as long as three to four months and unpaid raises that accumulated for almost a year.

EK Water Blocks has two entities—a Slovenian-based headquarters and a US-based subsidiary, EK Cooling Solutions. Steve narrated the series of events in detail, stating that the company was reportedly irresponsible and negligent regarding payment. Consequently, partners and employees are forced to share the burden of alleged mismanagement. It all begins with its extensive range of products, leading to a surplus of goods. EK has over 230 water blocks, 40 liquid cooling kits, 85 reservoirs, 40 pumps, 73 radiators, and 212 miscellaneous accessories.

Yes this is not about video games directly but indirectly this will impact the pc gaming/workstation space hard.

This company is massive one of two in the water cool space so if it goes poof then thousands out there have no spare parts or half built computers.

SO yeah i know not about a video game but think of it as amd leaving the pc space but this is ekwb that could be leaving water cooling in the pc space

Jayz2cents a supporter of there products also has issues

As someone that has built a watercooling rig. EK is big, but there's so many numerous watercooling part companies out there. EK's stuff isn't exactly amazing quality for the price compared to others either, it's just ok. Much like Corsair. The impact would be negligible long term. For perspective the majority of my parts are XSPC, at most I use EK for my gpu waterblocks and fittings. Both easily replaceable.
