All this valve love, and souplex hasn't started calling us all sheep and cursing valve under his breath yet? It's a chrismalloweenika miracle!

I really like Ubisoft mostly with respect to the Assassins Creed games. They just seem to do a good job and I never hear of any bullshit advertising etc.
Valve is obviously beloved by most.
Forgot about THQ, you never hear about them really ... no news is good news in this context!
Oh EA ... they really need to tighten up and revamp their image. I don't really mind Origin, Valve doesn't own the rights to the "game launcher" and EA have just produced their own version but they've made poor marketing decisions. They need to work hard to shrug off their bad image and they don't even seem to be trying. I don't think they really "ruin" the actual games though ... no matter how much you want to blaim Dragon Age 2 on them!

Well, I do love Capcom. People can ***** and moan all they want about them, but they've pretty much single-handedly kept the fighting game genre alive (yeah, I love Aksys, but Blablue is only so popular unfortunately), and they've got Resident Evil, my favorite series of games.
An up-an-comer though is definitely Rocksteady, with both Batman games being absolutely phenomenal.
And Nintendo, naturally.

Rereleasing Mario, Zelda and Metroid is not what i call a wide variety of games.Varanfan9 said:
I thinking of a game released by Valve that isn't a must play, and having a hard time. The only thing they done that makes me kind of "not amused" was releasing L4D2 as a game instead of an addon for L4D. And offcourse their inability to releash anything with 3 in the name.Gman said:
Biggest drop in love for me is Blizzard, since they joined Activision. I'm not sure if Activision has anything to do with it, but Blizzard has taken some questionable actions in recent times, which make be wonder what the hell they are thinking.
Most of them have their sins and their redeeming points. Ubisoft puts out some dang good games with a taste of originality to them, but then attach their DRM leash on all of them. Activision puts out playable but still so-so games, with barely any DRM to notice(Though how MW3 is released may change that. Activision has a chance to actually look better than EA with this). Valve puts out dang good games, restricted to Steam which is still a good service, but you have to wait fooorrrrreeeeevveeerrr for something new to come. THQ? Two words: Saints Row.
Two that aren't worth mentioning right now? EA and Blizzard. With the new policies those two have adopted, they aren't worth my money right now. Makes me happy Valve got to do DOTA 2 instead of Blizzard seizing on that.

1.) Warner Bros Games - I don't know if they are a "huge" publisher, but the fact that they give a lot of funding and time to Rocksteady to create near perfect games focused on my favorite superhero is what makes them one of my favorites. (Batman Arkham Asylum and Arkham City)
2.) Rockstar - Red Dead Redemption is one of my favorite games. Really excited for Max Payne 3, and the fact they pulled L.A. Noire out from the shitter to publish it was cool.
3.) EA - Their practices don't bother me. They make most of my favorite games and Bioware and Dice studios make titles I purchase.
