When you consider the computer game industry there are a few big names that stand out immediately such as Electronic Arts or Activision. 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.
So when you find out how many of the top ten games producers are based on the ratings of their game reviews you may be surprised to find out that the big names have not been so highly rated.
Develop100 ratings have placed Nintendo on the top of its list and this is not too surprising. 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. ZeptoLab is a Russian based game developer and has taken the number three slot on the list; this company has had a runaway success with its physics based puzzle game.
Back in 1997 a British games developer, Rockstar Games made its name by creating games for Nintendo handheld devices and for the PSP, so it is no surprise that one of their spin off companies Rockstar Leeds has made it onto the top ten list.
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.
