zynga will be in the finals you can bet on it, once they start offering promos for voting for them in their games like farmville, mafia wars etc

I'd be pretty likely to put Atlus as my #1 developer of all time, except they seem to hate the PC. That's okay, you know, except I don't have any consoles or handhelds right now. So they are unfortunately relegated to a measly No. 2 (behind Mojang, what else)

Yeah I noticed that. Obsidian are the only ones with a really easy draw into the next round.

I've found a few other glaring omissions from the list as well. I mean, let's be frank - where in the hells is SEGA, for example? :P

But yeah, I still enjoy these kinds of things. If nothing else, it's an interesting way to see how the general gaming community feels about certain companies (not a flawless way, but it works :P).

Now, if Zynga can be stopped from nigh-cheating this year... :P

I only go to The Escapist for Zero Punctuation. Every other thing I've seen from them has been junk.

pretty much the same thing here

even if I dont ever take it seriously at least ZP is somewhat funny

their other video series like "Unskippable" are simply not entertaining or funny

Zero Punctuation is okay, certainly not my favorite. You gotta read Critical Miss, it's a great webcomic. Also, Extra Punctuation is his weekly article, and thats always good to read. But my favorite feature on there is Extra Credits. The best thing on there by far.

Nintendo, you say? I had Blizzard and Rockstar North in the finals, but I shall update it accordingly. History is for learning from. ^___^

I'm slowly becoming an Extra Credits fan, those 3 are insightful and interesting every time.
