Electronic Arts and Activision are probably two of the names that seem to stand out from the rest in terms of the big names in the computer gaming industry; most people will have heard of these developers. Both of these games developers have been responsible for some of the world's most played games in the last few years namely the FIFA football and the Call of Duty series.
The fact that the list of the top games developers is decided upon based on the way their games have been rated in game reviews makes is surprising that some of the big names are not doing so well.
The software game developers ranked number one according to the Develop100 ratings are Nintendo so no surprises there. The number two position on the list has been taken by 2D Boy which is a big surprise; this company was set up in 2006 by two former Electronic Arts employees and the fact that they only have one title to their name makes it even more surpising.
It stands to reason that 4 of the top ten game development houses are based in the US and 2 of them in Japan. However the number three place is taken by Russian company ZeptoLab and the reason for this is the fact that they have managed to come up with a physics based puzzle game that has captivated the world and has become a huge success.
The only British contender was a better known company called Rockstar Leeds who are owned by Rockstar Games who made their name by making games for Nintendo Handhelds as well as for the Sony PSP back in 1997.
The remaining slots in the top ten are made up of one German and one Swedish company TheCodeMonkeys and 1337 Game Design; these game developers both concentrate on creating games for the mobile markets with big presences on the Apple platforms.
