I was just wondering what everyones favorite game development studios are. You know the ones. The developer that you trust enough to almost buy their games sight unseen.
For me its the 3 big B's: Bungie, Blizzard, and Bioware.
Bungie has had me since Marathon and even more after Marathon 2: Durandal. The story and gameplay of those games were awesome for their time and very well done. Halo just solidified Bungie for me. I remember we had a Halo clan way before Microsoft even got Bungie and decided to put it on the Xbox. Bottom line I know if I pick up a Bungie game I will have fun and thats why I play games in the first place.
Blizzard game have always been about playing with my friends. Starting with Warcraft: Orcs and Humans, my friends and I used to play hours and hours trying to best each other. Each new RTS from Blizzard would suck us in more then the last. From playing over modems to having tournaments after school in the computer lab. Then came Diablo and I for one couldn't get enough. I only stopped playing Diablo 2 after my buddies got me to join them in WoW. WoW is crack and I have played far to much of it. If I want to play a game with my buddies I know a blizzard game will be one of the top choices.
Bioware is a fairly new developer love for me. I didn't play much baulders gate. The first game that caught my eye from Bioware was Knights of the Old Republic. Wow Bioware knows how to tell a story and each new game they have released has improved on this for me. I really feel that Bioware has really figured out how to do combat well with DOA and ME2.
I have lots of respect for other developers but these three are the ones I really trust and get very excited for their games.
