Who is yours? I'd say mine would be in between Id or Valve. Both made great games, like Half-life, Doom, Quake, etc.

Valve rocks my casbah.
Ubisoft is also one of my favorites, provided they find more sane ways of combating piracy.

I've not got into Valve yet. I used to play CS a lot - and HL2 was awesome - but I need to upgrade my Pc before I start to take advantage of Steam properly. No doubt they'll be up there when I do.

For anyone who expressed like for Valve or id, you can buy every game they've ever made on Steam right now for 100$ and 70$ respectively. (This includes Left 4 Dead. Which is totally sweet.)

I should probably buy the rest of the Valve games that I'm missing, and, when the id pack was half off, I bought it for Luminaflare and I.
