I'll have to say Naughty Dog, if only for the way that studio's followers defend it so jealously. I'm of the opinion that Naughty Dog is one of the best developers of the last 15 years, yet the hyperbole and adulation that so often accompanies the mention of the studio turns even me off.

Just look at this thread. Critics of Naughty Dog have already been branded as "xbox fans," haters, and "envious" fans. 

Why, when someone picks Bethesda or Rockstar or BioWare, it's fair game, but when someone picks Naughty Dog, it's the result of envy or ignorance?

To be fair, the exact same thing is happening with Nintendo in this thread. Plenty of people are getting jumped on for criticizing them. 



Sigs are dumb. And so are you!

Nintendo stands out. Little change in 30 years!


Agreed. They were the greatest back then and 30 years later their ranking hasn't changed at all!

To each his own huh. I don't associate positiveness with someone/something not progressing over such a period.


Me neither, which is why I love Nintendo so much.

Rare thing these days. Good on you though, they are a part of video game history so they should be supported like any culture.


Yeah so rare^ I guess its as rare for Sony as well? Basing off you grasping for straws ignoring 3DS userbase and only taking wiiu's right? Guess we can do the same with the Vita and ignore ps4 user base. Looks like MS is easily the most popular of the three and will be by far lol!!!

If that's the case, it's equally indefensible.

I've never enjoyed a single one of their games

Atari has been long over it's glory days.

You will see! RCT:World will be GOTY 2015 and will sell millions of copies. And after the industry crashes in 2016, Atari will revive it with their new console: The Atari 6900. You will see! ;_;

Can even give certain opinions without defenders coming at you like what they say is fact. Ridiculous

Nintendo.


Thread says overrated, not underrated.


Please, Nintendo is one of the most overrated developers.


Please the only thing thats close to overrated is this comment.

Like a couple users mentioned earlier here in this thread, is this really whats the most overrated developer or just the developer i dislike? I seen maybe 1 or 2 people here who said Nintendo is overrated that actually play their games and had good reasonings behind them. Thats Kumogli (damn srry for the butchering of the name).

Bethesda, Platinum Games, Naughty Dog, Rockstar.

I know we all have our forte, and that they work on what they do best... But their best has remained pretty much the same way for years. I'd understand if there was criticism towards that for them... But it seems to get completely ignored in most cases, which sucks.

"Your opinion on what's overrated is wrong."

I'm not judging the game purely off that...if I was I woulda said it deserves a 0 for not including it.  Its not based on SSE, there should have been a new story mode that is able to compete with other fighting games.  Not having a major single player is a major flaw, worth way more than one point lower on metacritic.  If the next Mortal Kombat released without a story mode it would get ripped apart, but SSB got a free pass.  The fact is SSB has fallen behind other fighting games in that category.  


SSB got a free pass because of no story mode? Tell me does every fighter have as much content in it as SSB? or even close?

Tell me up to 3 fighting genre franchise's that beat SSB in these categorys...

~Number of Stages?

~Number of Playable Characters?

~Number of Soundtracks in the game?

~Extra Modes?

~Extra Content?

~Have over 4 players fighting at once?

 

(Cant think of any more to ask :-/
