Jut give me your thoughts.

I would have to say Valve cause well HL1 revolutionized the genre that id software created, HL2 didn`t innovate as much as HL1 but it raised the bar, no it VAULTED the bar for shooters and hell, all games. HL2 was the first game that really affected you emotionally and now with the Episodes, more and improved HL2 is coming. Counter-Strike: Source is the best online shooter I have ever played and in popularity it only falls second to Counter-Strike 1.6.  Day of Defeat: Source is to me atleast the best online WW2 shooter, no other has such realism and excitement. AND GUYS, think of Team Fortress 2, it`s like gone become the BEST online shooter and Portal is gone kick so much ass. So there is really no other company with so much future.
