Game Developer Research lists 'Top 50 Developers' of 2009

Posted on: June 21, 2009

video game Developer magazine (and its brainy video game Developer Research division) recently published its second annual enumerated accolades for the fine folks who make the video games that you crudely jam into your home entertainment consoles -- or, in layman's terms, the "Top 50 Developers 2009" report. The rankings are based on how many video games a studio created, the sales for those video games, and their metacritic ratings. Quality of box art and amount of 'tude possessed by the video games' protagonists, however, were not taken into consideration.

The results are utterly shocking -- for the second year in a row, Nintendo took top honors, with fellow money-printing organization Blizzard taking second place. Ubisoft Montreal skyrocketed from 12th place in the '08 report to third place in the most recent rankings. Regardless of your fanboyism for a certain developer, we think we can all agree -- in such a financially (and employmentmentally) challenging time, we're just glad to hear there's at least 50 video game developers that haven't been forced to shut down.

The full list is posted after the jump.

[Thanks, Braz!]
