i'd have to say blizzard. even though in your first post you make MMOs seem like what blizzard is famous for. it really isn't though.

they made the legendary starcraft, which set the pace for ever RTS game to come. they later reinvented it with WC3, with amazing graphics, heroes, map editor, and countless other things that made both games amazing.

also, the revolutioinized RPGs. almost every good hack-and-slach/RPG game ever made since Diablo game out, has been modeled after it. and then diablo 2 just raised the bar, by improving every flaw the first has.

blizzard is the god of video game companies

GAH!

In my opinion, Blizzard and Bungie's game development styles are very similar.

Blizzard tends to revolutionize gaming, but also sticks to a "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" development habit. Bungie does the same.

But both add new features into the game that spices up the game, and turns it into something revolutionary.

But I'd say that Blizzard's games are more longer-lasting and more fun than Bungie's.

People are still playing 10 year old Starcraft, and 5 year old Warcraft 3, and still obsessed about WoW (even though I hate WoW)

Bungie has also created grand games, but they are FPS's, and FPS's usually live for a few years, than die.

Like Halo 2, which was replaced by Halo 3 (which is a much better game)

They are both my favorite game developers, other than DICE and Infinity Ward.

I'd hardly consider a game that nets them over $100 million a month a "downfall."

There is better than the two of them; however, I pick Blizzard because of Bungie doing little beyond Halo games, and those games being FPS.

I like Bungie, but Blizzard own them for experience.

Seriously, World of Warcraft is bloody huge and earning billions, they also have Starcraft and loads of other series'...

Bungie has Halo. It takes more than Halo to top Blizzard.

In terms of money, Blizzard, they have 10,000,000+ players. Each player pays equivalently £8 every month, that's about £80,000,000, or $160,000,000 a month...

Plus buying the game, buying the expansions, etc...

But on the other hand...

Bungie is payed by Microsoft to make Halo, and Microsoft is the (second) richest company in the world (losing to some Mexican guy...).

Very unsurprisingly, I'll have to go for Bungie because they have Halo :p

Well its simple Maths...

Blizzard > Bungie but then the inequality sets in so it goes like this

Tim Tebow > Blizzard > Crap > Bungie.

To the person who said EA games: EA games is the most evil corrupted sign of hatred that ruins everything. Look what happened to Westwood. Unless you were probably just joking and then its cool =)

Blizzard has had such a larger impact on gaming than Bungie, it's not even questionable.

Blizzard is far superior.

Bungie didn't revolutionize anything, they just added needed features that should be in most FPS games.

Bungie = FPS, Halo series, revolutionary Xbox game, Marathon revolution FPS, 360 champion, best FPS in the world, beutiful graphics, one of the most awaited games in history (Halo 3),

FPS = yes.
halo series = yes
revolutionary xbox game = it's a good shooter, there's nothing revolutionary about something we've seen in dozens of game earlier.
marathon = it's not revolutionary.
360 champion = nope.
best fps in the world = hell fucking no.
beautiful graphics = so what? i've seen better on the 360.
one of the most overrated games eva = fuck yes.

by slapping on ''revolutionary'' on every bungie title won't make it a better game, you just slap it on because you know the list will look pathetically short towards the blizzard list if you don't.

i'm going with blizzard, diablo, WoW rts series, not a big fan of the MMORPG myself though.
