    7+ years ago Blue Byte was among the best (#1 or #2), but at present time, I'd say Maxis (Well... mostly because of the about-to-be-released SimCity 4, but also because they have made many good games back in the days)

    And since none of those where options, I voted for Banana Nut Software, like many others did (The Software company with most votes )...
    This space is empty... or is it?

        Sorry about leaving out SSI, I just figured there would be few famillar with their great works.

        SSI is easily in my top three.

            LucasArts, for the adventure games not the Star Wars ****.

              I voted ID because they actually releases most of their games for my OS

              I would have voted Lucasart because of all the great adventure games they have made, but they get a for their unjust legal *****ing on ScummVM.

                    I voted for Paradox, they make the best games these days.

                    Bioware would be a close second, and I'd also like to mention the development team of Atriarch for being the most interested in talking to the fans. (atleast they used to be.... it's been a couple of years since I last followed the game)

                      I thought Microprose was just a publisher? Or did they kind of organise a bunch of different development teams, or something?

                      Beats me, but I remember their logo on all the classics.

                        Well I like EA (though people have complaints on it, they brought me MOHAA), ID Software, and Westwood.

This is the violence of institutions -- indifference, inaction, and decay. This is the violence that afflicts the poor, that poisons relations between men because their skin has different colors. - Bobby Kennedy (Mindless Menance of Violence)

                          Blizzard followed closely by ensemble. Firaxis was up there but have fallen significantly IMO since CIV3.
