Just checked around to see if there were similar threads, and didn't catch any.. so, whats your fave game companies? Mines would be

~ Capcom - Megaman, Street Fighter, Darkstalkers, 1949, Giga-Wing, Tech Romancer, Jo Jo Bizare Adventure, X-Men Children of Atom, and the list goes on! My all time favorite has to be Capcom. ^^

~ Treasure - I am a HUGE collector in everything made my Treasure! A rare Japanese game company that produced such hit games as Gunstar Heroes, Radiant Silvergun, Guardian Heroes, and Silhouette Mirage. And other great titles like Mischeif Makers, Sin and Punishment, Bangai-O, and the list goes on! Great character designs, great ideas, great games.

~ Atlus - This used to be my all time fave, because of my favorite game of all time, Trap Gunner. But it doesnt hold that place now. Other great titles as Guilty Gear series, Kaitia, Super Dodge ball, Persona, and much more make this my 3rd favorite!

yOuR tUrN

Square, Konami, Insomniac

Hey Kenchii, do you remember the old Treasure game "Dynamite Headdy" for the Genesis? Definitely one of my favorites from the 16-bit days.

id - Made Doom and Quake. Enough said.
Bioware - Baulder's Gate and NWN. Known as one of friendliest company for fan support. I mean, some expansions were out solely for their fans.
Ion Storm - Made Deus Ex and Anachronox. I need not say more.

(in no

Red Storm - cmon Tom Clancy games are cool
Rare - Donkey Kong Country, Goldeneye, Banjo Kazooie, DK64, Perfect Dark (where's the sequel?)
Nintendo - Makes some of the best and most memorable franchises ever. Who else believes they should give up on the console market to do what they do best and JUST MAKE GAMES?

The OLD Squaresoft before they merged with Enix and before they made Final Fantasy X.

I also hold much respect for Capcom -- lovely company, Street Fighter, Marvel Vs. Capcom, Resident Evil, Mega Man, and so much more.

Oh and Kenchii I SO agree with you on Treasure, I love Gunstar Heroes and all those fantastic shooters and side-scrolling action games in the mid 90's left a huge impact on my mind. And Bangai-O is perhaps one of the most underrated games ever.

Nintendo - Zelda, Mario, Metroid, Earthbound, need I go on?

SquareEnix - Final Fantasy(old school mostly), Chrono Trigger, Dragon Warrior, Kingdom Hearts

Sega - Skies of Arcadia and Sonic

Sorry I can't just stop at 3

Capcom for Mega Man

Konami, Square-Enix, there ARE other companies? (I play silent hill, Metal Gear, Final Fantasy, seiken densetsu, DDR, .hack...) I would say Bandai, but they is the devil. They hold no responsibility in making .hack. That was a fluke or something. I guess then I could say Maxis... I mean, SimTower was an awesome game! Yeah!

Blizzard- I got all of there Pc games. Geat RTS
Namco- Some great Arcade games.
Capcom- Marvel Vs. Capcom 2, all those streetfighter games

Blizzard - Starcraft, Warcraft, soon WoW
EA - Battlefield Series
tough choices
ubisoft or lucasarts or bioware

i cant decide!!!!!!!!!!!

Don't for get Westwood; people who made Command & Conquer series, and Dune. Absolutely the best games I ever played in my kid days...

My favorite would have to be Capcom, for Street Fighter, Mega Man, the Vs. Series, Cannon Spike, Resident Evil, Power Stone, and Spawn.

Numbers two and three go to...

Blizzard-Starcraft, Warcraft, Diablo 2
Namco-Tekken, Soul Calibur

Honorable Mention:

Koei-Dynasty Warriors (and hopefully the upcoming Samurai Warriors!)
Midway-Gauntlet

My three favorite game companies:

1. SNK (now known as SNK/Playmore): the King of Fighters series, Samurai Shodown Series, Last Blade Series, Garou: Mark of the Wolves, and so many other great fighting games....

2. Square-Enix: one of the best console RPG companies.

3. Namco: the Tekken and Soul Calibur series.

Honorable Mentions (there a quite a few):
Sega, Nintendo, Capcom, Konami, Sammy, id, Blizzard, Bioware... there are just too many.

MicroProse - Civilization.. Pizza Tycoon... Transport Tycoon...
EA - Fifa, NHL, NFS
Blizzard - Lost vikings(?), Starcraft, Warcraft, Diablo...

also good: vigrid interactive, gremling, gainax, maxis, Microsoft +++

agree.. there are many...

Yes! I forgot that game! Dynamite Headdy was a very fun, addicting game too.

I dunno Kevin, Nintendo(ever since the SNES) does make some VERY relliable hardware, my GCN seems much more durable then my orignal PS2. Now if Nintendo hadn't broken off relations with Sony back in the day... they would be on top without a doubt.

AHHHH I CANT DECIDE

Nintendo -:rock: Do I really need to say it.... I will anyway. ALL OF THEM Even though they did spawn the evil Playstation. AHHH THE VERY MENTION OF IT FEELS MY BRAIN WITH A FIERY PAIN GRRRRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH *head explodes*
Sega -Sonic
Blizzard -Starcraft and Warcraft
Namco -Soul Caliber II
EA -Medal of Honor
Capcom -Marvel Vs. Capcom 2
BioWare - Jedi Knights of the Old Republic
Id - Quake

Square Enix - Final Fantasy...need I even say more?

Nintendo - Super Smash Brothers, and the dozens of games I played that are a part of my childhood memories

Capcom - Marvel vs. Capcom series, Megaman in every form

Honerable mentions: Sega, whoever made Grandia II. XD

hmmmm it seems everyone here except me has a strange liking to konami capcom and namco, since i dont have a console, i havent played alot of these companys games....

Ubisoft - Prince of Persia: Sands of Time, Beyond Good and Evil, Rainbow Six:3 Splinter Cell, Splinter Cell: Pandora Tomorrow

Bungie - Marathon (all of them), Oni, Halo

Bioware - NWN, Baldur's Gate, Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic

In no particular order:

Konami (Metal Gear series, Dance Dance Revolution series)

Capcom (Mega Man series, Viewtiful Joe, Devil May Cry series)

Square Enix (Final Fantasy series, Kingdom Hearts series)

RnK

SquareSOFT - Everything they've made pretty much

Capcom - Megaman...omg O_O So awesome!! Devil May Cry...even better !!!

Nintendo - Marios, Zelda, Donkey Kong...so much fun stuff

SquareSoft - Everything they've made

Capcom - Devil May Cry, Megaman

Bungie - Halo

Square-Enix: for Final Fantasy series, Parasite Eve, Chrono Trigger/Cross, Brave Fencer Musashi, and almost everything they've ever put out... Illusion of Gaia deserves a mention also (it's Enix... what're you gonna do?)

Capcom: for Street Fighter, all of the Vs. series, Devil May Cry, Darkstalkers, and, of course, Megaman!!! I don't care what those so-called "gamers" out there who keep bagging on Megaman because "the gameplay is always the same" have to say. I mean, come on! It's Megaman!!! Seriously, just because stuff is going 3D doesn't mean EVERYTHING does, too! Long live the Blue Bomber in all his 2D, side-scrolling, ever-varying forms of glory!!! *pant pant* Sorry, I have issues. Moving on...

Konami: for Metal Gear, Castlevania, Zone of the Enders, and DDR!!!

Many honorable mentions here: SNK/Playmore (King of Fighters), Sammy (Guilty Gear), Treasure (Ikaruga), Namco (Soul Calibur), EA Games (Lord of the Rings), Sega (Sonic and Phantasy Star), Nintendo (Zelda, Pokemon GAMES, and Kirby), and many many more... who's names escape just now...
