There are a lot of developers who have made a big impression on me, but two stand out.
Konami
It only took one game from them this gen to realise how good they were. When I began playing MGS2 I couldnt put it down at all. I managed to complete the game the first time I played it. For about 9 to 10 hours all I did was play MGS2 non-stop. beofre this there had never been a game that had made me do something so sad, but thats because the game was so amazing. It just blew me away. MGS2 became one of the best games I had ever played.
Then there was ZOE2. I had never played the first one because many people had told me that its not very good, but when the second one came out it ws different. Everyone was raving on about how amazing the game was and it didnt take me long to realise that they were right. Just an hour into the game and I was obsessed, I couldnt put the controller down. This time i wasnt so sad and i actually stopped playing after a couple of hours, but the game was really unique. It had a geat concept, it controlled great, the graphics were amazing and the story and characters were just as good as anything else in the game.
Just when i thought they couldnt do much better, they made MGS3, which is now my favourite game of all time. There has never been a game which is perfect, but MGS3 comes very close. The traditional MGS gameplay was made even better and although many complained about the camera angle, I still loved it. The graphics looked amazing too, it was something really special. The story ws just on another level though. I really though that they couldnt top MGS2's story even though nearly everone hated it for some strange reason, but MGS3's story was just incredible. From beginning to end it was mindblowing and the ending of that game is something like no other. It was probabkly the first ending of a game that made my eyes watery. Fuck FFVII's ending, fuck any other ending, MGS3's enging is unmatched and so is the game.
Last but not least is the PES series, which has made me spend countless hours just sitting in front of the tele playing it.
Atlus R&D 1
Ive never been a big RPG fan, but DDS might have changed all that. Before DDS the only RPG's I played were FFX or anything else by Square-enix. This generation I gave a few others a shot. I played ToS, whoch was crap and I also played Dark Chronicle which was really good, but DDS is amazing. I decided to give the ganme a go. I found it for real cheap so I had nothing to lose and I am so happy that I decieed to buy the game. It has probably been the best RPG this gen. Im not going to explain why I enjoyed it so much, but i really loved both DDS games. Ive never had the chance to play their better RPG, SMT Nocturne but I've heard its even better! From now on Im going to keep a close eye on what Atlus R&D1 are doing because i dont want to have to miss out on any of their amazing games.
Rocket: Robot on Wheels was great.
