    Every company that gets bought by another corporation either cranks out a few good games and then dies, or cranks out an okay game and then dies. The eventual outcome is always death.

    Bullfrog, Raven, Westwood Studios, Bioware, Origin, Maxis, Viceral Games, all of them.

      There are some exceptions like Naughty Dog (is there another one?) that kept their quality after getting acquired. But I agree in general with your thesis.
