Has Sony made FromSoftware a well respected studio?

Idk, I think From Software made the games. Plus they were known for Armored Core long before Souls.

It would be like saying MS made Epic Studios a well respected studio imho.

Not really, since Sony Japan Studio co-developed Demon Souls (and the upcoming game Bloodborne), while Microsoft Studios was in no way involved in development of any past Gears of War game.

Some assistance with one game that they made does not change the fact that From Software made the game, or that they were known long before Demon's Souls.

Sony supported the game so much they opted to pass on publishing it outside of Japan, and it went on to sell almost 4 times as much outside of Japan and was a big enough success that it spawned Dark Souls, which is a bigger franchise than Demons Souls.

Of course does it really matter? From was already a "respected studio" and have been for 20 years.
