Mojang which has one non released game ( in beta) should not be the best developer.
Edit: thanks to Eshton for doign this first in the Minecraft section, hopefully the people there will have the smarts to vote for valve.
I agree, Mojang makes one game, that isn't even fully retail yet, and get's a higher score than Valve, which brought us not only Steam, but countless high quality games?
It's because people see Mojang and think 'lol minecraftz is rox good game lol VOTE', and are voting for the game rather than the company.
Voted Valve.
Bloody Minecraft fanboys!
Minecraft is good but Valve have done so much more for the world. Minecraft just has a massive fan base.
Minecraft is good, but it does not compare to Valve.
vote for valve
not particularly fond of either company
One (Good) game versus a selection of of the best games made to date?

maybe because minecraft is a game? anyways, i don't really think valve makes good games so i'll just vote for majang because i love minecraft.
This is really pitiful. How can Minecraft beat every Valve game out there?
I guess it's just the fanbase. I'd bet you that half of them don't even know what valve is, they just blindly vote for minecraft.
Damn Mojang is taking the lead. Anyways, this doesn't mean shit. It's just a contest so some no-lifer can get a shitty Alienware laptop.

maybe somebody has an opinion that differs from yours
that doesnt mean that they're idiotic sheeple
Voted for valve, twice. (Tweet and get another vote)
i have to have a facebook? i guess im not voting then...
It's because of the word of mouth from Valve (and others) that Mojang/Minecraft is popular.
Think about that.

uh yeah why wouldnt there be.
there's a thread called "Vote for Valve!" here
[QUOTE=gav618;28879850]blizzard against bioware[/QUOTE]
[b][i]Fuck.[/i][/b] Good thing I'm too lazy to vote, I'd have an aneurysm trying to figure out who to vote for. And God knows what in the next round if Valve wins against Minecraft.
While I don't think Minecraft is evil, I agree that it shouldn't win. It will, because notch posted a link to the contest on his blog, but it shouldn't. In any case, voted for valve.
