Why is Nintendo there for expanding gaming to the mass market, when Sony already went most of the way. Don't get me wrong, Nintendo should be there for other things, but Sony should also be there. Eye Toy, Singstar, Buzz and other non-traditional games first came to PS

Ubi number 2? I am certainly not sure, that End War certainly was innovative

errr sorry, but those games you mentioned were not the first camera games, karaoke games or quiz games. They just advertised them better

Well they were the first that reached the mass market

Almost nothing about that list or the reasons given have anything to do with being innovative.

How the hell can Ubisoft make the list when all they've ever done is copy Nintendo?

They sure were, but that doesn't make them innovative. That makes them successful =)

Help! I'm stuck in a forum signature!

How the hell is Gears of War 2 innovative? I think they put the wrong title. Anyway, ACTUAL innovative companies:

Media Molecule. LBP dared to be different and succeeded.

Nintendo. Come on, just look at the Wii. Nintendo created the analog stick. They are the oldest company, yet they always bring the most innovation to the table. They failed to do this with the GameCube, and the GameCube failed.

Team ICO. Not sure if they count as a company, but SoTC was a breath of fresh air.

Loads more, but these three spring to mind. Microsoft are just about the opposite of innovative. Not that that's a bad thing.
