Our Picks for the Most
Influential
The staffers at Ten Ton Hammer love the massively multiplayer online
game industry, because it seems like the only business market that
could provide their consumers with such extreme emotional highs and
lows. Unlike high-end movies or even lengthy novels, massively
multiplayer games take an average of four to five years to conceive,
develop, and produce, which keeps an agonized fan waiting for the same
amount of time to actually play a studios upcoming game. With that in
mind, Ten Ton Hammer's Cody "Micajah" Bye has taken the time to plot
out the twenty individuals that really influence the MMOG marketplace,
in both the positive and negative sides of the equation. The list is
not comprehensive, but it hopefully gives gamers a true feel for the
biggest names in the industry.
