Best developers in the industry. No way around it!

I never got into the Jak series and I wasn't a huge fan of Crash. They're excellent at presentation, and while their gameplay is polished, it (to this point) has lacked a bit in originality.

Naughty Dog: Peerless.

To me, they're easily the best in the business. Every generation since the PS1 their games have stood out and they have constantly set the bar. I love how their characters have become more human with each generation (physically as well as relating to them emotionally).

No they are not. Rockstar Games i z better ;o

OT: What can I say, they produced 2 successful/universal critically acclaimed new IP's. That says it all.

damn, as much of a naughty dog fan I am, I would also rate rockstar higher. Red dead redemption was just too awesome. Not to mention all their other series too.

They get away from too many tropes because people love them.
They made the awesome Crash games, and Jak And Daxter , Uncharted is a bit overrated for what it is, and don't know what to say about Last Of Us since I didn't play it yet , they should stop talking about graphics though and the "used % of the power of the PS(whatever) " , like seriously, it makes them look so lame.

Seriously, your posts about Uncharted are getting old. Try to be creative next time.

My fav dev team. Every game they have produced since crash bandicoot is of the highest standard.

I have played every Naughty dog game since way of the warrior :(. Every single game was good apart from way of the warrior.

Crash 1-3 n Karting. All high quality
Jak 1-3 n racing, All high quality
Uncharted 1-3 all high quality.
TLOU. to be determined. I would bet my left nutsack thats it will be of the highest quality.

In my opinion, Naughty Dog is the best development studio in the world.

Uncharted may be a tad overrated but it is still a great series nevertheless. All 4 titles have kept up a certain level of quality, even if they waned in some regards. U2 was indeed the shining one in the lot, and like you said, it was almost impossible for U3 to live up to it.

Crash Bandicoot is my shit tho, those games were AMAZING!!!!! So much content to unlock. I remember me and my sister having to tag team each game to get through it and that was some of the most fun I had in my entire life.

Jak and Daxter was also phenomenal. I can only speak for the first 2 games tho as I didn't play the others.

When combining all that Naughty Dog have done, they are assuredly the best at what they do. Many devs aspire to get to their ability because they did things in coding that was just unheard of.....till they did it.

I am for the official Name change to Naughty GODS as well ;)
