Re: Major game producers
 

Chris, what kind of company are you looking for exactly?
A "producer" is a job title, for a person who manages a game project.
A "manufacturer" is a company that duplicates disks or hardware, or stamps out plastic boxes.
You can learn about those terms in the Game Biz Glossary: http://www.sloperama.com/advice/lesson28.htm
And what is "an undergrad position" exactly? Do you mean a full-time job, or an internship? And where are you located? California, Washington, Texas... Idaho, the Canary Islands...?
Look up game companies using gamedevmap and gameindustrymap.

Probably he was looking for companies such as Ubisoft, Activision and so on.

Ubisoft comes first on my brain when he mentioned about major game manufacturers. He better check the site for more infos.

Have a nice day to you guys! :)

You can google video game developers and you will get a whole list of them at wikipedia. There are tons of companies hiring if you are dedicated and you are creative. Let them know that you are very serious about working and making improvements on your own skills to help the company. They love that stuff. Hope this helps:)

I wish I could get a job in EA sports, specially after seeing the NFS RUN trailer..:)
