I would have to say EA. there all about nothing more then the bottom line and it shows in the quality of whatever games they have there hands in.

Capcom. They've all but trashed their franchises at this point by either re-imagining them (Resident Evil, Devil May Cry), completely forgetting about them (Mega-Man), or milking them (Street Fighter). And then there's the micro-transactions (Asura's Wrath). So yeah, fuck Capcom.

Is this not your quote? "Ok, but what I am saying is that people who usually "make" games are Developers, not Publishers."

I'm not sure why you think first-party studios like Nintendo EAD, Nintendo SPD, Monolith Soft, Intelligent Systems, etc. are not part of Nintendo? Nintendo owns these studios and the employees are part of their corporate heirarchy, and they make games solely for this company. This makes Nintendo a developer with multiple studios, who also publishes their own games as well as for other studios.

In this same example Ubisoft is a developer that also publishes its own games. Ubisoft is made up of multiple studios that all produce games solely for Ubisoft. If you count Ubisoft as a developer, then I don't see why you'd exclude Nintendo from the same definition.

I don't want to seem harsh or anything, but I'm not sure where you're coming from on that subject.

If most fans of a given franchise/series shit on a particular release and point out many of the same reasons for them not liking it, which is the case with DmC, then there is most likely something wrong with it. Almost every DMC fan I know hates that game, even more than DMC2, and beyond that the sales for the game prove it to be less than desired in comparison.

Sorry, but you're in the minority.

People complaining about Street Fighter re-releases with minor DLCs added... It's not even close to Annual CoDs, Fifas (and all other sport games) and the like, they are all the same game for basically 5 years with minute improvements and added chapters/players... all of them could be made as DLC, but won't because 60 for each sale is better than 20... and mandating people buy new one or be out of MP is really effective and dirty.

Fix'd

Capcom for on disc DLC, the new 13 GB update for DR3, canning pretty much every recent Mega Man game and blaming fans for it is enough to warrant their place. I can't say much about EA, they usually make games I am not interested in so I usually avoid most of their crap.

i see where you are coming from. I dont think people complain too much about Street Fighter proper. That is one of the few things Capcom got right IMHO. the original release was fine. then the did the Super thing, but it was cheaper and IMO way better. every subsequent "release" was just an add on, one didnt NEED to buy it unless they didnt own the Super edition and even then. its only 30 bucks. Cant see how you wouldnt want that. The problem with Capcom is they didnt extend this to the other fighting games. Mvs.C3 got a definitive edition announced for cheaper about 2 months after the game came out and was released months later. That pissed me off as i could of just waited for a cheaper better version. SFxTekken was just a clusterfuck of greed. 12 characters locked behind a paywall? 360 version terribad? Its crazy cause the game itself is actually good. Im just glad i have Vita so I could (ironically) get the best version of the game.

As for COD, i dont think the last part is true. I suspect you will still find plenty of people playing the old games, its not like they just stop playing them al together when a new one is out, but if it makes you feel better its starting to decline.

people call out Activision for yearly COD (and rightly so) but why not do the same for Ubi? they do that with AC and Just Dance

Capcom because I think they no longer have any idea on what they are doing. Except maybe milk MH.

Also, Sega because they keep killing their franchises and continue to alienate their fanbase outside of Japan. :(
