I'm developing a RPG game called xerellium quest and when I'm finished I want to sell it or get it published by a big company (e.g Microsoft, Infogrames, EA). Can you help me?

I hate to break it too you that you probebly won't get it published by microsoft,infogrames,ea, unless it's really really good.

Although there is a semi-big company for independent game developers called Garage Games.There's a post in the general talk section about this.

name shname it doesn't really matter i support the way yellow broke it down to u, and i very much doubt a multi skilled developer can match a team of multi skilled developers search around the forum, someone started a simillar thread and got a pretty descent list of publishers that accept sub/standard games

to live is to suffer, to survive, well, thats to find meaning in the sufferening.....

Matt - man (just to annoy ya hehe) I'm suprised Toad hasn't killed you for your avatar, or then again perhaps he is flattered.. I think he is the latter, and I think I would be too if someone took a picture of a gorgeous bloke and put it as their avatar.

no one ever recommends us
though would be nice to see an actual demo, you ain't gonna get a publisher at this level without a working demo.

I pride myself that i don't kill... well not without a good reason
