who is the best developer?

[rocketpig]

I won't count Nintendo because they simply have too many studios producing games... it's hardly even fair so I'll restrict it to companies that don't have 50 studios spanning 10 countries. Besides, I'd have a hard time picking Nintendo in a landslide if we're allowed to include Sony's first and second parties (ICO, Naughty Dog, Insomniac, Polyphony, etc.). They're both close.

So, with that said, my choices go:

1. Blizzard
1a. Valve
2. BioWare

Blizzard and Valve never produce a game that is less than stellar while some of BioWare's offerings are merely "good".
