Games you respect Developers for

[VastShadowz41]

Take Darkest of Days for example.

I'm a history buff so I enjoyed going into WWI and Civil War battles,and using their weapons with some futuristic ones. WWI and Civil War are genres untouched by the FPS market and given a twist to make it all fun, and that's what I loved TimeGate Studios for doing and support them for it.

The game could have been better yes, but I respect the spirit they did it in.

Also Section 8 for another example, in my opinion a great sci-fi battlefield conquest style game. Underrated and overlooked by H3: ODST no doubt but I still respect what the developers have done and their concept.

They can be any game, a mainstream one or underrated game that you've liked a studio for doing.

double fine for the masterpeice known as psychonauts.

 

[Woem]

Planescape: Torment, by far. For putting the role-playing back into CRPGs.

Combat RPGs? Interesting..

 

[PTSpyder]

Capcom for making Monster hunter, for being at least some what different and for not "fixing" controls that were never broken to begin with.

Clover Studio for Okami

 

[T-Bone24]

I respect Capcom for publishing Okami. It's something so risky and something so vastly different from anything Capcom put out before, that I respect them.

Very much aware that Capcom did not make Okami, but I respect them for the risky move they took in actually publishing. The game was a masterpiece.

I respect Valve because of Portal.

 

[Extravaganza]

Blizzard - Starcraft
Valve - Most everything

Heh, I got an N64 in my basement but I really need to order that game online and play it again. Best Zelda ever IMO.

 

[Go Fighting In The War Room]

I respect DICE and inadvertedly EA for Battlefield 2142.

 

[VastShadowz41]

Blizzard - Starcraft
Valve - Most everything

I'd respect Blizzard more if they put out SC2 sometime during my lifetime.

 

[Joa_Belgium]

Team ICO for their amazing games that stand out in the crowd, with Shadow of the Colossus in particular.

Naughty Dog mostly for Jak & Daxter and Uncharted.

DICE for having the guts to try something innovative such as Mirror's Edge. You wouldn't say this comes from the team behind the Battlefield series.

 

[A Weary Exile]

Clover Studio for Okami

Yes, terrific game.

Loz OOT. Nintendo erned my total respect with that one masterpiece.

And about two-dozen other masterpieces!

I would say 2K games for Bioshock and Oblivion and Bethesda for Oblivion also and Fallout 3.

 

[Torque669]

Sid Meier's for making fantastic games like Pirates and Civilization Revolution.

Naughty Dog for Crash Bandicoot and Uncharted

Bethesda for Fallout and Oblivion.

Eidos for Batman Arkham Asylum

Free Radical/Crytek UK for Timesplitters

I could probably find a good game I respect every developer for.

 

[Vlane]

Okami, Ico and Shadow of the Colossus, Mark Ecko's Getting Up, inFamous, CS:S, WoW, Final Fantasy IX, all the SMT games released in the last 6 years and SoulCalibur III. I'm too lazy to post the developers but that's why we have Google.

 

[JMV]

Shadow of the Colossus, Beyond Good & Evil and Psychonauts.
