Who do you believe is the most over rated developer?

naznatips: your defense of Blizzard on the previous page was epic and the best thing I've ever seen from you. I completely agree.

I was trying to remember the last game that Blizzard actually put out that was bad, and I can't remember. I've liked them since Rock 'N Roll Racing with the hidden character from The Lost Vikings.

Someone claimed WoW was a treadmill...but that's what MMOs are, and Blizzard has the most financially successful game ever. The fact that they are doing Starcraft 2 is a credit to them not continuing to milk WoW. What they have to live up to with SC2 is ridiculous.

Griffin: Your comment to naznatips after he compared Wisdom's argument to yours made me laugh. That was awesome. I'm with you on Metroid Prime, btw...doesn't look good and bored me. You're on your own criticizing Valve and SMG, though...I'm complained about SMG before, although I liked it a lot, but got shot down because no one wanted to face that it had problems yet. Oh, and Valve is awesome.

About Bethesda...I loved Oblivion and found it to be fun enough to be 170 hours in and I'm still playing. I just finished Shivering Isles and am now going back to leading the Mages Guild where I just found out I can create spells. A whole new battle system just opened up for me. I very much look forward to Fallout 3.

About Rockstar: I'm not into GTA yet, and I know so far that the aiming has sucked, but I loved Midnight Club 3. Bully is a great game. Table Tennis is great on 360. I loved that Manhunt took chances even if it was for publicity. I liked it.

About Square Enix: wow. I have loved nearly every game Square, at least, that I've ever played. The few exceptions are Saga Frontier and Dirge of Cerebus, although I did enjoy the backstory and it wasn't too bad playing on easy since the combat kinda sucked. Whatever, guys.

I might put some more thought into this later, but right now I'll go with Mistwalker for my choice for over rated.
