List of Raven Software games

 * Nominator(s):  Pres N  22:00, 14 March 2018 (UTC)

Continuing my meandering walk through the catalogs of 1990s video game developers, I've now come to Raven Software; like the previous two companies, Raven's 25-year journey has a notable arc. Starting off as a small computer RPG developer, they were quick to jump on the FPS bandwagon after id Software, briefly their neighbors in Madison, Wisconsin, basically invented the genre. After selling themselves off to Activision, Raven started to hit the big time with major licenses like Star Wars and the X-Men... only to completely fall to pieces after two games in a row were commercial failures in 2009-10. In the 8 years since, they've been a developer on 10 Call of Duty games... which is worse than it sounds, as that series has 3 developers who get their names on the box, none of which are Raven. They continue to exist, but are pretty much just Activision's "helper" team at this point rather than a developer of their own. In any case, I've created this list and documented their catalog here in the same style as other video game company FLs I've done, and I think it's ready to go. Thanks for reviewing! -- Pres N  22:00, 14 March 2018 (UTC)
