Well, I tend to just buy stuff I have a good fealing about. I also tend to like most kinds of games (except anything fishing or just plain weird related). The company also has a lot to do with what I buy. If Microsoft releases a RTS game, I will likely (eventually) buy it, espically when they pay me to beta test *cough* highly hyped RTS game *cough*, that also helps in my decision, hehe.
