Well, what can i say... i always buy the latest EA versions of the NBA, NHL, and NFL games, and EA has simply the best available.

Black Isle studios of course.

Ok, who can decode who is responsible for all of the infinity engine games.

Bioware made the game engine for strategy game makers. Black Isle licensed them to make baldurs gate with it. Both companies had something to do with baldurs gate 1 and 2.
Black Isle used it itself to make the best (planescape) and worst (icewind dale) IE games.

Black ISle studios made fallout1 and 2. They are the best rpg company they put out excellent products.

They may be the best for some sport titles, but what about the FIFA franchise. I think the last FIFA game which was actually good was FIFA 99'. Eversince the 1999 installment, the FIFA games have focused too much on players names, advertising and player likeliness rather than on gameplay which is by far the most important factor in gaming.

Sythe if Looking Glass is out of business who's making Theif 3?

The team that made the Thief went to work with another company because the company they previously worked at (Looking Glass) went out of buisness. They went to work with ION STORM. The Thief Team would be making Thief III with the same graphics engine as Deus Ex II. (Deus Ex is such a marvelous game.)

Quote:

Also isn't SystemShock 1 a text based game?

No it's not. The game came out more than six years ago. The first system shock is like the second except of course the graphics are WAAAAAAYYYYYY diffrent and the enimies are sprites (Like pop up 2D people.) I have the game......somewhere.

I'd have to go with Blizzard. All of the games they've made are excellent. They have the best storylines and the best multiplayer service (battle.net).

Squaresoft because of all the great Final Fantasys they have brought us.

I like Bioware and Sega.

Bioware ovbiously because of the BG series.

I like Sega for many reasons. The Mega Drive was the best console I ever owned many great games and I played that console for about 6/7 years. I also like alot of Segas games like the Panzer Dragoon series and Shenmue II and Virtua Fighter 4 on my brothers PS2 rocks!

bioware and black isle

pritchke · 08-12-2003, 11:14 AM

Bioware for me due to the fact of consistantly pruducing good games.

I am going to toss out "Sierra" has no one seemed to mention them yet.

With games like:
Ceasar (series)
Half Life (series)
Empire Earth
Gabriel Knight (series)
King's Quest (series)
Zeus

Sierra does have some decent titles. Kings Quest: Mask of Eternity the only one that came out in 3D?
Cloudff738 there is no more Squaresoft (sorry) It is now SquareEnix or Squenix for short. Should prove to be an interesting merger.
Can anyone tell me if there is any appeal to FFX-2 other than Luna and Rikku's skimpy outfits, or is it just a sad rip off of FFX?
