Buying a console for one game!!

+1

I can't stand MK Wii for this reason.

I find it only happens when you are way out in front though, whether thats more acceptable or not I dunno, though it is a pain I still find Mario Kart sooooooo much fun, especially online! Its the only Wii game that gets played regulary tbf.
 
yea all my consoles were bought for one game at the time but its not like there wont be anything else out so its win win :D
 
I bought a PS3 for MGS4. At the moment it's the only PS3 game I want, but it's not like I'll never buy any more PS3 games. I'll probably end up buying some multiplatform titles for the PS3 instead of the 360, it will help justify buying the thing:D
 
I said during the PS3's launch I'd buy it when MGS4, GT5, DMC4 and FFXIII come out.

DMC4 is on PC.

GT5 is still ages away. As is FFXIII.

MGS is by far my favourite series.

But if I get a PS3... I'll have to buy other stuff for it, such as a HDMI to DVI cable and a set of good speakers that accept an optical output. So I'm looking at around £500.

Which would be better spent on a shiny new lens for my camera and a guitar. :p Just can't justify spending that much on something I may not use after the big titles are out. And the games are really, really expensive.
 
Awwww man, I mustve been crazy on friday...

I work somewhere that sell ps3 and games etc (competitor :p) and saw MGS4 put its sweet little ass on the games shelf...

So I bought a PS3 just for that game!! :eek:

Not really like me to do that...but its a good game - love the MGS series :)

You guys ever bought a console for one game?

I wouldn't buy a PS3 for MGS4, no chance.
 
I bought a PS1 solely for Resident Evil 1

Bought a GC solely for the R.E. remake

Bought my 360 solely for Dead Rising

I guess i like zombie games :)

That being said i own many games for each system, but i bought them specifically to play certain games.
 
I bought a PS2 back in the day to play San Andreas. The whole affair only lasted 3 days and around a year after that it was doing nothing until I sold it to someone I know for peanuts.
 
Bought an N64 at launch mainly off the back of Mario 64 hype.

Only bought consoles since because I wanted them, not because of a single game.
 
It sometimes feels like I bought the 360 for Halo3 (and the xbox for halo 1+2)

TBH if you enjoy the game and get the play out of it, then whats the problem? If you play MGS4 half as much as I played the halos then you will more than get your monies worth. Its those people that buy loads of games they hardly play that I think are wasting money.
 
ps3 for metal gear 4, i knew it was coming, and thats the only game that really interested me as i was so hooked on mgs 2 and 3 on ps2. even though mgs2 was a bit too short for my liking. well, i was doing a speed run and got quite a good time
