Just as the thread title reads.

A friend and I were having a discussion on these two Sony TITAN devs. He believes Naughty Dog is the better dev, I agree but feel Santa Monica can possibly produce better results in their games, such as Uncharted 2 vs God of War III.

So tell me VG, just for fun, which of these two devs do YOU think is greater, and why?

I'm going to keep an eye on this one:

Naughty Dog - 19

Santa Monica Studios - 7

TITAN ? Orly ?

You guys have been playing too much Batman :P

I'm not gonna vote for either. Sure they are top notch, but I won't proclaim one better than the other.

Check out my game about moles ^

Wow, that's a difficult one.... Santa Monica Studios

The GOW series has been consistently AAA, but you have to hand it to ND - they've been excelling for 3 platforms now...

Santa Monica. Naughty Dog are still awesome, though. Just God of War > Uncharted.

Naughty Dog, but I'm ready to see the post GOWIII thread of this!

Possibly my view will have changed ;]

Going by their history I'd say Naughty Dog, though I'd say Uncharted and God of War are equally brutal.
