We all know 20th century Fox, Apatow, Paramount, Dreamworks, etc. Well, the game world is no different. You have your unknowns who shock the world, the dependable studios that churn out great games every year or so, and the absolute powerhouses that have a game coming out every other month. So here are the top Game Developers of '08
Media Molecule - Littlebigplanet
Media Molecule is this year's little engine that could. Their Debut game turns in to the biggest thing to happen to Playstation in years.
Capcom - DMC4, Okami,
Capcom almost never disappoints. Most of the games are Action/Fighting related, and while '08 was definitely slow for capcom, even their down year churned out more games than entire Studios.
Rockstar - GTAIV, Midnight Club,
Rockstar has made a name for itself by pushing the envelope with every game they release. From Midnight Club, to GTA to Manhunt. Rockstar is the future of gaming itself.
Konami - MGS4, Silent hill: Homecoming
Konami has quietly outlasted tens of Game Developers. It's secret to success is it's steady amount of releases. Konami might not be the powerhouse it once was, but it is still one of the best Developers out there.
EA - NBA Live, Madden, NHL, Need For Speed, etc.
Gleichschaltung, I mean EA is often criticized for making countless games each year without improving on anything. EA is seen as the faceless majority and is the posterboy of making way too many games. But with that said, it'll be the most famous game developer from now until the end of time. ZEIG HEIL!!!!!!

If we're gonna compare EA to Hitler, we might as well compar Rockstar to Obama. Rockstar is not only the most influential Developer of '08, but also the entire decade.
