Credit where credit is due

So after reading this interview: http://www.gamezone.com/products/halo-4/originals/interview-certain-affinity-s-role-in-halo-4-expands-far-beyond-the-forge ""We did a whole lot of stuff," Certain Affinity President and Creative Director Max Hoberman told us. "We were on Halo 4 for 18 months or so. We actually had all hands on deck for the majority of that time so kind of full blown engagement on the multiplayer side of things." "We were full blown co-development for multiplayer in Halo 4. We did a whole bunch of multiplayer maps for the game, all of the Forge maps, the Forge feature maps, and a bunch of game modes including Dominion," he explained. "" This is getting a tad annoying. Considering the amount of work Certain Affinity has been doing for the Halo series, why can't they seem to get their logo included in the bootup where everyone can see it? I'm aware they're listed in the credits, but not many people will actually ever see them or look at them. The games industry has a real issue they need to deal with giving due to those that contributing to the game, and this is the second time this has happened to Certain Affinity with Halo specifically. Halo: Anniversary. A game made by Bungie (no logo anywhere in the game), with the reworking done by Sabre (no logo in the bootup) and all the multiplayer content done by Certain Affinity (based off Bungie's work). And it's not like they were pressed for time since there's vast dead spots in the intro video where they could have put those logos. So basically everyone but 343 and MS did the heavy lifting on Anniversary, yet all you find are MS and 343 logos at the start. Halo 4? MGS, 343.. no Certain Affinity logo, even though they did (apparently) most of the heavy lifting for multiplayer. Conversely, Activision seems to have no problem putting Sledgehammer alongside Infinity Ward in the introduction of Modern Warfare 3. As a developer myself, this is one of these things that have been bugging me about post-Bungie Halo.
