Of course.
Do they make great games that are popular? CHECK
Do they have a dedicated staff? CHECK
Do they love their community? CHECK
What more do you need?
A steady income of fungus-free donuts and a bottomless coffee dispenser...
OT: Ya know, I think that they really are a great company, mainly because Halo is my all time favorite game. That's what got me interested in them. If it wasn't for that game, I wouldn't be posting on these forums, and neither would many others who are members of this website. They revolutionized the way many people, myself included, see video games.
Sure there have been spots in a game developers' history where one game isn't as good as compared to one of their other games, but that how it is with every game developer.
Look at Infinity Ward: they created a kick-ass game that got people's attention. After their first game, it was just repetitive until Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare. After that, it was still repetitive, but they at least tried something different than keep with the WWII games. Are they a terrible developing company because of that? No. It just means that they can do so much better when they decide to make a new game series.
But this isn't about them. I was just using an example to further reinforce the statement in the second paragraph. So basically, I think they are a great developer altogether. But, that's just my opinion. You have yours, and I respect that.
