Valve gets my vote for PC
Atlus for handheld
I'm undecided for consoles.
Valve has shown it's not pulling any punches on Dota 2 and hopefully it will become a successful e-sport.

So this is your profesional opinion. Have you played Uncharted? And define linear?

Well they are making a new GoW and a rumoured FPS. I hope something will be revealed at E3 from them. |
We´ll see how FPS turns out. But Ascencion is just another GoW game. They have proven that this formula works, this game will be awesome. But again its just another GoW game.

I have no doubt in my mind that Dota 2 will be huge any way you slice it. I just wonder how huge. Can it overtake LoL to become the biggest MOBA game around? |
It might.
LoL still have the absolute advantage in terms of numbers and is making splashes in China. Last year, I went to Hainan Island for business trip and everyone is mostly playing LoL in the cybercafe.
Dota is massive in China, it is roughly estimated the chinese audience makes up 40%-50% of the worldwide audience. Valve did 2 things right. The International 2 has already revealed 4 chinese teams and by hosting another tournament ( at least as big as the previous $1.6m one ), it's showing dedication towards Dota2 becoming a successful esport.
Do not allow yourself to be blinded by fear and anger. Everything is only as it is.

Not necessarily. Like someone mentioned earlier, the Forza devs make consistently quality games and so does Naughty Dog. So if you like their way of making games it's a not brainer that you would include them on your list. ND are working on The Last of Us which will be very different from Uncharted. I notice you listed Monolith Soft. Aren't they mainly an RPG dev? |
They are, but they make a wide series of RPG's, namely the Baiten Kaitos and Xeno____ series. In addition, they do a lot of smaller stuff. And the Uncharted games just bored me anyway. The dialogue was a bit ropey, they were pretty darn linear and it just felt unifinished. I'll never understand the appeal.
But TLOU does look pretty sweet!

No, I was pointing out the irony in your post. You say you don't like Uncharted for its linearity, then go on to say Minecraft needs more of it. |
How in the world did you get "Linearity" from that Minecraft part?
- Not Mojang (I have no idea why everyone so obssessed with this indie company and notch, minecraft feels like a glorified level creator, and there is no point of playing it more than a couple of minutes, atleast Terraria had an actual good battle system and "Adventure" as in it pays if you try exploring)
there is a huge difference between linearity and the lack of content, uncharted has both these issues though.

I pretty much agree with this. Have you seen the latest Far Cry 3 footage of the interactive movie scene in the burning house? I wanted to throw up. All these AAA interactive movies are a disgrace to gaming. |
I assume you talking about games like Uncharted when you say "interactive movies"....such bullshit. If you calling uncharted a disgrace to gaming then you are completely delusional.
Far Cry actually looks promising compared to Far Cry 2 which was boring as hell. Nothing but a benchmarking tool for my pc.
Theres nothing wrong with a game focusing on cinematics, graphics, atmosphere and story. As long as they dont forsake gameplay then its algud. And based on sales, user reviews, and critic reviews id say uncharted did well in every category.

Uncharted 3 has an 8 hour single-player and a huge multi-player offering, including co-op. And DLC has been rolled out frequently and regularly. That's more content than most games. And since when was linearity an issue? I guess half-life 2 is a horrible game. If you don't like linearity in games that's fine, but it's a subjective criticism and should be treated as such.
