I never played a single Retro Studios game, but am pretty sure they are an awesome developer.

But Naughty is one of my favourite studios because they aren´t just milking their known franchises but are willing to take some risks with new games and concepts. Plus they are the by far the best studio Sony owns.

Maybe Rockstar, Bioware, Nintendo and even Retro are better in what they are doing. That I do not know, but Naughty dog has a special place in my heart thats for sure.

This highly depends on how you define milking, because Uncharted has seen 4 releases in 4 years.

Uncharted - 2007

Uncharted 2 - 2009

Uncharted 3 - 2011

Uncharted: G A is not developed by ND so...

Do you want better examples of milking? ;)

Naughty Dog was involved with it, at the very least.  Also all that changes is it's 3 in 4 years.  People also call various Nintendo franchises milked that are released LESS frequently than that.  In fact, a lot of studios have a release rate similar to 3 in 4 years.  So his point doesn't make much sense unless he defines milking differently.
