Ever? That's a tough one, because I don't think any ONE dev has that crown all to themselves. Capcom, EA, Ubisoft, Activision, and Sqaure-Enix would be my top picks.

developers not punlishers im thinking rockstar north, but i want to see what people say, help have a bit more of an insight 

Every one of those is a developer, in addition to publishers. I read the OP carefully, so don't worry. Plus, read the edited post.

Also, keep in mind, devs can't influence the industry without the backing of a publisher.

damn you and your edits my good sir! dont ruin my thread for me!
