Is there a dev company whose games you will play, no questions asked?

Considering if I were a games reviewer no game would be safe from my scrutiny; and while I question any serious change in any game series I have an interest in, it's very hard for me to come up with an answer.
So. The developers whose products I would purchase, with nothing more than an eyebrow raised at any questionable changes to style, would be:
Bethesda Softworks & DICE![footnote]HATERS GONNA' HATE.[/footnote]
Very closed seconds go to Bungie and Epic Games, I will continue to buy their products, but not necessarily as pre-orders. Reach's multiplayer swayed too far from the trademark Halo formula; and EPIC, whilst making a good job of Gears, ruined Unreal Tournament for me completely with UT3 - and that was my most favourite game series up until that point.

The bad guys are called the Empire (Seriously), there is a Darth Vader wanabe who has a famly connection to one of the party members, there is a character that is a sky pirate with a Copy and past personality of Han Solo but instead of cheiwe he has a tall bunny girl in near to no clothes (really, she has bunny ears). There is even a Death Star at the end and it is attacked and destroyed by a small reble fleet lead by someone whos first name is Admarial.GreatTeacherCAW said:
Boiware, Infinity Ward, id, Bungie, Platinum Games (I loved Vanquish and Bayonetta WAY more than I thought I would) and FromSoftware (Dark Souls is the only game that could get me away from Skyrim!)
That would be Creative Assembly.redisforever said:
The closest I come is buying all the single player Final Fantasy series (never touched XI or XIV). Otherwise, I much prefer to judge a game on its individual merits as to whether or not I'll get it. I know my own tastes well enough by now. Consequently, I've not bought a game I thought was crap.
And for those that like Platinum Games, you may be interested in Anarchy Reigns which is due out this year. Essentially a mass multiplayer brawler.
It's too bad, their PC games used to be great. I still play San Andreas on my PC sometimes.TheKasp said:
Bethesda always has a great game conceptualized but they can never execute properly, so it works on a basic level. So I don't even buy their games when they come out anymore. If they could make a ps3 port that would work, I would name them. But I just can't
Q Games and Q Entertainment never seem to disappoint me. They never make very big games but all their titles are tight, entertaining, and priced well. Something about that letter Q I guess.
Well, as an almost exclusively-console gamer, I guess that one doesn't apply to me. But I can't get my head around driving games on the PC...'cause with the triggers, you can ease on the pressure and the acceleration adjusts itself to fit it. How do you do that with a keyboard?TheKasp said:
Same here, Atlus always seems to publish stuff that is right up my alley.Solaire of Astora said:
So is Valve.
Other companies like Konami and Capcom usually force me to ask questions because they tend to screw things up occasionally. (IE: Latest DDR Games are SHIT)
