There was that one year EA released Mirror's Edge and Dead Space, then went back to being utter shit.

Ubisoft deserve credit for AC and AC2.

Activision... CoD 4? And I haven't really enjoyed Blizzard's stuff since 2008.

I can't bring myself to dislike any publisher.

Purely because if I was running them i'd be doing the same damn thing to make money.

Instead I move my scorn on to the developers that create mediocre games.

Ubisoft made the PoP sands of times trilogy , and those were amazing games .

EA . Published dragon age 1 . And that was an amazing game . I really hope dragon age 3 is good . Althought it would be halarious is Dragon age 3 had the EXACT same ending as Mass effect 3.

Activision ... Well activision ... Uhhn ... They ... Hmmm... Well they grouped all the trolls and 13 year old screaming kids under one banner (CoD) so they are absent in other online games ... Does that count?

Ubisoft made Beyond Good and Evil and Rayman Origins. I have no problems with them.
EA made Spore and The Sims which are pretty good.
I haven't played any Activision games, though I have no problems with them. Call of Duty sells well, it would be stupid not to make more. I blame only the people who buy them.
I simply cannot fault a business for trying to make money. That's the only reason video games exist, after all.

Well, Ubisoft:
Beyond Good And Evil (!!!!)
POD (I think)
Prince Of Persia

EA:
Black & White
Command & Conquer

Activision:
Did they publish Lost Vikings? I think they did. That's all their good games I can remember.

They all used to be respected game publishers. There are numerous titles from all three companies that I have enjoyed in the past like Prince of Persia: SoT, Assassins creed 2 and most of EA and Activision's 6th generation releases . It's only in recent years that they realised that they were losing some money and everything went to shit. Any extraordinary achievements by them, if there were any, are hard to remember through the shitstorm of the past few years.

Well, with Activision, they were in the development for Toy Story 2 and Buzz Lightyear of Star Command: Action Game. Both of these games made up a great portion of my childhood. In more recent history, I have really come to enjoy [Prototype] and would also like to look into the new Wolfenstein, as well as Ultimate Spiderman and Spiderman: Web of Shadows (seems like [Prototype] with Spiderman) and see if they're any good.

Electronic Arts... Well, they've made what I have found to be the absolute greatest 007 games I have ever played. GoldenEye (any of the three versions) cannot compare. I also really enjoyed Lego Island Extreme Stunts. I think it's the greatest Lego game I have ever played.

Ubisoft, I don't know quite as much about. I might have heard this wrong, or else someone might have been totally yanking my chain, but, I think I've heard something about Ubisoft dropping DRM. Again, I might be dead wrong about this. I'm glad that they finally decided to give another shot at good ol' Rayman again (Yahtzee sure seemed to like it)! I also admire what they've done with Assassins Creed. Not many other developers these days would go so out of their way to put in so much culture and historical accuracy at the level Ubisoft does.

I also like how all of these developers are big on PC. I've got a few PC games from all three of them, old and new. Also, Activision is "Friends of Dolphins". I'm not really sure if this is a good thing or a bad thing.

I tried really hard to think of something, I honestly did. However, I cannot think of anything decent to say about any of them.
The only thing I can think of is that Activision made Mechwarrior 2 but that was back when it wasn't the same Activision it was now.
