Your favourite big 3rd party publisher?

[JEMC]

Hmm, from the big third parties I'd choose Take Two and Ubisoft.

Ubi because they are one of the most active publishers on all platforms (WiiU, Vita nd PC included), their game portfolio is big and varied and their while they suck with their DLCs (as many, many others) their price policy with the games is a God send for those like me that don't buy games at launch.

Take Two because they are more like the underdog. Many don't even think of them when talking about the Big 3rd Parties... until a GTA game gets launched, of course. And that's becase the other thing that puts them on my list, while they have quite a few known franchises (GTA, Borderlands, Max Payne, Civilization, etc.) they haven't followed in the same pattern that most publishers have: they don't make yearly launches of their games, besides their sports games (NBA and MLB and now also WWE). That's great because it gives developers more time to come with new ideas and also keeps their IPs safe from being "more of the same". It's something to be proud of and a policy that not even the rumored(?) buyout from EA of some years ago could change.
