For me, on the Atari 8bit computer, Synapse Software was epic. They just nailed it back in the day. Original EA was epic to, with about everything they did being a huge hit. I still have a place for M.U.L.E. Of course, I find Sid Meiers to be up there, and on the PC would end up being Microprose (though their start on the Atari 8bit was real good to).
Arcade side, Atari was almost always a winner. Them, Taito, Exidy, and forgive me who else, really set the mold.
Another question would be: What are the essential arcade makers of the day?
And let the discussions about particular games begin!
