No. I'll throw my hat behind certain game series because I know they are fun based on previous installments but I'm not behind any company. Not all a company's game are exactly the same and thus I might not like them all, even if its a good game.
Not really, but Bioware is the closest. I'm not getting TOR though, as I don't really want to play another MMO for a while at least.
Actually, Blizzard. I will buy every Blizzard game (not counting WoW expansions).

Valve, mostly. Actually, to hell with it, even after Oblivion I'm still Bethesda's *****, and Skyrim proved that all over again.
I'm always asking questions, so no.
The only company who comes close would probably be Bioware.

Valve. To be honest I already do. If Valve release a game I buy it. I do look at if first but I will probably buy it.
Obsidian. Have not set a foot wrong, as far as im concerned. KOTOR 2 was a fucking masterpiece that kicks the shit out of its predecessor and successor, Neverwinter Nights 2 was a very good game, with 2 awesome expansions, one of which may as well be Planescape: Torment 2, and the other may as well be Icewind Dale 3. Alpha Protocol rocked, fuck the haters, and Fallout New Vegas was the true sequel to Fallout 2, and lived up to that legacy. Im still playing Dungeon Siege 3, but im enjoying it so far. Bioware also, but Obsidian just make better games, im sorry.
There's not really any companies that I buy every game from because each company I can think of has at least 1 product I don't like or can't play since I don't have any consoles, but there's 3 that come close
Atlas would be one for sure if they started making their games for the PC as well as consoles.
Blizzard is close, but I refuse to play WoW.
Valve would most definitely be one if I had interest in DotA2, but I hardly play LoL and that's f2p

POP CAP!!!!
Seriously though, buying without thinking is what got me New Super Mario Bros on the DS which caused more yawning than a lecture on safety procedures in bouncy castles :/
Also, the first five months of the 3DS :/ (getting better tho)
Think first, buy second.

Last console generation, Rockstar Games filled that niche nicely. GTA IV and L.A. Noire spoiled that concept.
I was enamored enough with the work of Harmonix that I bought Guitar Hero 1 without ever playing a demo, and so far the only disappointment I have with them is fluctuating in and out of existence.
More importantly, it seems like modern development teams are detached enough from their franchises that publishers will swap them out at will in order to make sure there's a version on shelves by November. So it's getting harder and harder to look at a name on the box and automatically know yea or nay.

Bioware and Gearbox are probably my two. I can't wait for Borderlands 2 and Mass Effect 3. Can't, fucking, wait.
Two companies for me:
Atlus for the games Shin Megami Tensei, Demon's Souls etc.
Blizzard for the old good games Starcraft and Diablo.

I've heard a lot of responses I expected, although the weirdest ones I've heard are for Quantic Dream (the ... people ... behind Indigo Prophecy and Heavy Rain) and Lionhead. I don't think everyone actually read the entire opening post since I didn't ask "What will you blindly buy?" but who would you support? I always rent games from my local video store before buying them, except the rare occasions I get a PC game, since you can't rent those, and they don't always have demos.
