I only buy games from the genre that i like: Fighting, action adventures & RPGs. Not a fan of sports titles.

Also i tend to buy from known franchises like God of Wars, FF, Diablos, Marios, Street Fighters, etc...

Not really in term of exact taste but someone that share same gaming perspective as you as gamer.
Since i sincerely do not think a review can be truly unbiased.
and yea, it does beat the function of game reviews therefore i never trusted it!
feels like i'm contradicting myself sweat.gif sweat.gif sweat.gif

I usually buy online coz looking for used games. New games also buy online. Guess that answer the 'how' question.

If you ask me why, it's because I like the genre. And I'll go look for the review. Then I will look at the gameplay, would it suit me. Woth my time and money or not.

Sometimes my friends would reccommend me what to buy. Knowing them have the same taste as me, I'll trust them and buy

1. series i like
2. genre i like
3. trailers i like - especially gameplay trailer


I never buy game looking at the price.
Just decide to buy, then only know what the price of it.
First person shooter a no-no to me no matter how great the graphic is.
about review, yeah i dont really trust all the review site,
since there's a lot of reviewer of different kind and not all of them same taste.
i rather agree with youtube personal review by Jeremy Jahn's
his taste almost always spot on to me. even his movie review too
