They may do a good job in game development, but coming from TV & Film they should consider VR above all. I think that's what they should do at first because they specialize in TV & Film, so they would be able to make experiences that are more appealing and cinematic. Time will tell, I won't count them out, but I just think they would be better suited for VR. Texas Chainsaw Massacre VR would be terrifying and fun at the same time.
Electronic Arts is the most popular video game producer among US gamers?! Yes, according to the numbers presented to us by V. Chaudhary, 64% of avid video gamers are still clawing for EA action. It's all good... as long as they're doing supporters right.
Rockstar Games is right behind EA at 63% for US gamers. Here's the breakdown as it was presented:
Electronic Arts, despite its less-than-perfect image, generates interest from 64% of avid video gamers. 37% of gamers claimed to be very interested in the company, and 27% were somewhat interested.
In the second spot, Rockstar Games generates interest from 61% of avid gamers. The American company is responsible for producing open-world games like Grand Theft Auto and Red Dead Redemption. Ubisoft and Activision are third and fourth, respectively, with a total of 57% interest rate.
Ubisoft is a French company and the first non-US company on the list. The French developers are responsible for some really popular franchises such as Assassin’s Creed, Far Cry, Watch Dogs, etc. Activision is another US-based developer, famous for its Call of Duty franchise.
In the fifth spot, Capcom is the first Japan-based developer on the list. The Japanese company is behind several franchises such as Resident Evil, Monster Hunter, Street Fighter, Devil May Cry, etc. 55% of avid US gamers keep an interest in the company and its products.
Blizzard Entertainment comes sixth with an interest level of 53%. The US-based developer is famous for its online games such as Warcraft, Diablo, Overwatch, etc.
Amazon Games was only established in 2012, and it doesn’t have a significant amount of games in its portfolio yet. However, it has already generated curiosity among US gamers. 53% of these gamers claim to keep an interest in this offering from Jeff Bezos. "Wait... wait... what?!" - Blu
Bethesda Softworks attract interest from 47% of US gamers. The American developer, currently owned by Microsoft, has developed games like The Elder Scrolls, Doom, Fallout, etc.
At the ninth spot, Square Enix is the second Japanese company to feature with an interest rate of 46% in the US. The company is most famous for its Final Fantasy series.
American developer Gearbox Studios finishes the top-ten list with a 45% interest rate among US gamers. The Texas-based developer is famous for its Borderlands and Duke Nukem series. - V. Chaudhary
"I would be ashamed to list Duke Nukem, the last game was outdated at launch. They still have a chance to do a relaunch of the franchise." - Yang
There are solid listings, and we appreciate V. Chaudhary for the information but I would pull Amazon Games out of this. Interest in what's to come is different than interest in the games a studio already has.
