Forums - Gaming - The most well paid Game Developer

Gabe Newell probably, he was a millionaire before he formed Valve and now Steam is probably raking in the cash.

This makes the most sense. Though if we're going with this route, we could include Iwata, since he too was a game developer, and still is to a small extent, as he continues to steer the ship



Monster Hunter: pissing me off since 2010.

Around the Network

I'm pretty sure Cliffy B. isn't the best paid. He lives in my city (Epic Games is in Cary, North Carolina, as well), and he gets his car serviced at the same place I do. He's got an E46 M3 with a ton of work done to it, but the car can't have more than 60k in it. He doesn't have any exotics, either. He's pretty well off, but he's definitely not the richest game developer.

Edit: As someone above said, Miyamoto refuses to take more than average developer's pay.
