3. Sid Meier
Notable Games: Pretty much anything with his name and/or the word Civilization in it.
Sid Meier
Sid Meier founded an eponymous gaming empire when he designed the breakthrough turned-based computer strategy game Civilization in 1991. More than 15 years later, the Meier brand is still one of the most well-known names in the videogame world (his likeness is fairly recognizable, too, as it appears in one form or another in many of his games). His current studio, Firaxis, is working on a console-friendly version of the Civ series. The apt name? Sid Meier's Civilization: Revolution. In addition to the Civilization canon, Meier has given the gaming world pirate, railroad, and golf sims.
Fun fact: Meier was the second person to be inducted into the Academy of Interactive Arts & Sciences Hall of Fame after Nintendo's Shigeru Miyamoto.
