Platinum Games has certainly been riding high for a while now, and will probably continue to do so. Why wouldnt they? Theyve produced some of the previous decades most memorable action games despite only existing for a relatively short while compared to other developers of similar skill. After two much smaller companies merged to create Platinum Games in 2007, Sega put them on the map by publishing four of their games. Madworld on the Wii, Infinite Space on the DS, as well as the criminally underrated Vanquish for the same platforms. By the time those four games were out in the wild, Platinum Games would quickly become known for their over the top action, dazzling special effects, and extremely creative artistic designs.
