Don't we have the "Unpopular Opinions" thread for this?
If you're gonna use that logic, then why have internet discussions or message boards at all?

Most are defunct/killed by EA
Looking Glass Studios
Valve
Bullfrog Productions
LucasArts
Naughty Dog
Microprose
Bioware
Black Isle Studios
Psygnosis
Rare
Treasure
Working Designs
Troika Games
Origin Systems
Team Silent, Sonic Team, Team Ico (I doubt these count :P )
Blizzard (formerly)
Square (back in the day)
Paradox
Arc System Works
Level-5
Epic Games (back in the day)
id Software (back in the day)
Ion Storm (if you ignore Daikatana)

Although I'd rate some higher than others. Most of the ones who've published more games have made a lot mediocre/unambitious cash in games, while usually the smaller studios who only made a handful of games like Troika and Looking Glass (more than a handful, but they took many bold steps and had multiple innovative and influental game series) are the ones who really poured a love and charm and quality and little details into each of their games.

I'd say that's a pretty respectable list there, Menegrothx.
