Never bought a console for just a single game, but I got a PS3 for Demon's Souls, Yakuza3-4, and MGS4.

Nope. I was tempted years ago to get a 360 almost exclusively for a XIM3 keyboard/mouse adapter to crush kids in Halo and Cod, but I figured it ultimately would be a waste of money.

Persona Q

I don't give a fuck because later I picked up Pokemon X, Bravely Default, Soul Hackers, and SMT4, so it was a decent investment anyhow.

I probably would have never bought one if Persona Q hadn't have came out though.

I got an Xbox 360 almost entirely to play Banjo Tooie at double digit framerates..

Dead Rising.
It was released at a perfect time.
The zombie craze wasn't completely over done then, and it had a fresh concept and a not-too-bad story.

I would still buy it if they ever ported it to PC.
>>
>>323969598

Not me, but my brother bought a PS3 in anticipation of the release of Last Guardian.

He also got married as a result of an unplanned pregnancy.

He's never been the best decision maker.

And he's now a Sergeant of the US Marines.

I bought PS3 for Neptunia Mk2. I enjoyed the game but I don't think it was entirely worth buying a PS3 just for it. Had a few other JRPGs that I bought as well so it wasn't too big a waste.

They should un-fuck the hand to hand combat so you don't essentially autolose to the final boss if you didn't get the Kick-flip attack yet.

I forgot about that shit on my recent playthrough and it pissed me off so bad I don't even feel like 100%ing it now.

For one game? Got a secondhand Gamecube relatively late in 6th gen mostly just for SSBM at that point, though I did play the game somewhere else prior

For everything else I've needed more exclusive games to justify buying a new console

I bought consoles and handhelds for MGS4, Dissidia, MH3U, and MH4U.

Obviously a PS3 just for MGS4 wasnt worth it but was a good investment long term, and I only really played Dissidia and 012 on the PSP but feel I got my moneys worth.
