Bioware: "Thank you, and keep up the good work."

Bungie: See above, though add in a recommendation to try to stay away from Space Marines.

Naughty Dog: "Where's the next Jack And Dexter game?"

Sucker Punch: See above, but with the Sly Cooper series.

I would go to Bioware and say "I'm thinking of buying Mass Effect, do you reckon its any good?"

Seriously though, id go to Pandemic and rifle through their cabinets for information on Star Wars Battlefront 3

I'd go back in time and talk to Looking Glass Studios...

And tell them to buy lots of google stock. And ask them to put out the multiplayer "patch" to Terra Nova: Strike Force Centauri.

I mean, people are still making and modding Wolf3d. TN:SFC would still be alive.

(OH, YEAH, AND THIEF/SYSTEM SHOCK OF COURSE)

Same thing with Interplay and Shattered Steel. But they might be coming back...I can still hope.

But if it was today? I'd have to talk to CliffyB, tell him to make UT4 his most important project. Then I'd point to UT'99, and say "More like THAT" and point to GoW and say "Less like that..."

Eidos/Square Enix: If you fuck up Deus Ex 3, I will tear your jaw from your head and beat you to death with it.

I'd talk to Eidos Interactive and get a written agreement to drop everything else and begin work on a new installment or reboot of the Legacy of Kain franchise, lest I begin shooting.

RareWare has recently raped one of my all time favorite games from my childhood.
Banjo Kazooie and Banjo Tooie.

Microsoft is the main friggin reason it happened, things went down after M$ purchased them from Nintendo.
----

STOP RAPING BANJO!
We need a new platformer BK game to fix the abomination you've created!

I mean cars?, WTH man!
Thats not Banjo!

We haven't reached the Race part of the series yet!
I mean Crash Bandicoot had at least 3 games before it got raped with a racing game.
THIS ISNT FAIR!

Must avenge Banjo *pulls out gun*

*Squirts water from my water gun*

Wouldn't work. Rebellion Developments has it now.

I'd ask Square Enix to publish the next Kingdom Hearts game on a non-handheld. SERIOUSLY!

I would tell Hideo Kojima to quit it with the retarded 25 minute nothing but talking cutscenes (I just finished Castlevania: LoS and I reckon that ending was his doing).

And I would tell Obsidian to stop blaming everyone else's engines and fix their damn games. The whole chimpanzee beta testers thing just isn't working out for you guys.

I would tell Bioware that I would like to have their babies.

Well, to be fair, there was a GBA game or two. Then again, one of those was an airplane-esque game if I remember correctly, so... yea. On the plus side though, at least Microsoft made Banjo-Kazooie and Tooie for purchase again. Now we just need a REAL Banjo 3...

I know about those games, but they don't follow the storyline.
So in my mind, they are like small spinoffs.

But yea, we need a REAL Banjo 3 Mr.Factchecker :p

I would go to Lionhead and show them the original Fable. I would make them play it and realize that they had something good going on. Id tell them to stop with the "innovation" and stick with what they know works. I'd also say a few swear words to good ol' Peter.

But in all seriousness if you could really tell any game developer one thing what would it be?
I'm confused; it's an open world game, why don't you just play it again? Or will you only throw away your money if it's in a dignified manner of your choosing?

Apart from smacking Valve over the heads for Episode 3, smacking SCE Santa Monica over the heads for killing the amazing character that Kratos was at the end of GoWI, smacking Blizzard over the head for destroying people's lives, and giving big hugs out to all the great indie devs, I'd probably... idk.
Apart from some concepts I'd like to see explored by an actual developer, there isn't much. Perhaps unload my opinion on what Valve should and shouldn't do to TF2.
Because when you have a great game, you expect the same great game from the sequels.

Nintendo, we get that you want to be different, but now the other guys have their own motion controls, it might be time you got back to making games people would actually want to play.

I would go and tell Bungie they are awesome and should not listen to the many mindless haters.

I would tell Relic that people are not stupid, and Homeworld 3 would in fact be just as well received as the other Homeworlds.

Then then I'd go slap Microsoft round the face and tell them to reform Ensemble Studios. We remember you, Age of Empires...

But, you're basically saying that they should make the same game. If you want to spend $60 for the exact same thing, then whatever it's your money. I would personally like to see games evolve or continue a good story. I'm not going to pay good money just to get the same thing I spent $60 on two years ago. If I did, I'd just burn it and go and play whatever game I bought before. Especially if it's a game that's got as open a world as Fable; you could play it again ten times each in a different way. Why beg for more of the exact same thing?

Fable may be a bad example because I don't particularly like the series and I don't particularly like the "innovation" that goes on with each new title. Oh, you can be a girl. Whoopdey-fucking-doo. But if it were to add an entirely new function or focus on something completely new, then I have no idea why you'd prefer a simple remake with different characters.

Blizzard, battle.net 2.0 and the popularity system is the worst invention ever. This is coming from someone who is not afraid of change and can clearly see popularity is inferior.
