Well, Nintendo is the most creative of the big three first party developers.

I disagree.

If you take Mario and Pokemon away from Nintendo it would cripple the company, if you took ALL of Sonys IPs away from them it wouldnt be a huge deal because their first party would just make successful new IPs like they've been doing for years.

New IPs copied/inspired from Microsoft and Nintendo IPs you mean.

Like Journey? Flower? SoundShapes? LBP? Heavy Rain? SotC? ICO? Unfinished Swan? Demon's Souls? soon Puppeteer? soon Teraway? soon Rain? Yeah, totally IPs copied from MS and Nintendo

Journey and Flower are not first party devs. Thatgamecompany had a 3 game contract with Sony that is now over and they will likely make multiplat games. Media Molecule had made LBP before Sony acquired them as a studio, plus LBP is essentially a Dress me up Mario game with a level editor. Demons Souls was a third party exclusive that happened by mistake basically (there was an article about it saying the game was pitched to Sony and the guy from Sony who tested it said it was terrible). Heavy Rain is just like Indigo Prophecy which also came from Quantic Dream prior to them signing with Sony. ICO was last gen and it is unclear whether or not TLG will ever release. The other games mentioned I don't really know anything about so I'm going to assume they're either very niche or unreleased. Then we have Uncharted, which was inspired by Gears, Resistance which was inspired by Halo but then switched to copying CoD, Infamous which was inspired by Crackdown, Killzone which was inspired/copied by Halo and CoD, Modnation and LBP Karting which was a copy of Mario Kart, and PS All Stars which is a copy of SSB.

That makes it like... totally different man, what's next? Are you trying to tell me Rayman is a Mario wannabe as well?

Out of all 3, only Sony tries to push more and more new IPs, MS just doesn't give a fvck and Nintendo can never get out of their comfort zone.

Blizzard number 17 lmao. So 1-16 have games as popular and genre changing as World of Warcraft, Starcraft, and Diablo?CanYouDiglt
Blizzard should be #2 behind Valve.

But yeah, you can tell the list is crap. They have too many unproven developers rated over proven developers who might have made a few disappointing games. For example Bioware should be in the top 10 and Rockstar should be at least #3 Epic games being #11 and Naughty Dog being #5 doesn't make much sense either, they should be much closer to each other. Crytek and Gearbox should both also be at the very least in the top 15.

Also Arenanet being above Blizzard? Seriously? Was this list created by Guild Wars fanboys? It's like they never even took Starcraft into consideration here and just said "Oh GW2 is a better MMO in our opinion so Arenanet wins" forgetting the fact that Blizzard has been in the business longer and has been much more successful and has had higher rated games on average in multiple genres.

Also the fact that the Minecraft Dev (Mojang) is ranked above both Arenanet and Blizzard is quite laughable.

This list is just a gigantic troll.

Doesn't mean anything, we're not discussing how important the game is, we're comparing features.

Valve are the gods of gaming, They never lie unlike any EA subsidiary or R*, They are creative and do not copy from other games, They are full of innovation and satisfaction.
