"Games that made you buy the console" thread

[Null]

I was going to buy a game.com for Sonic Jam, then I saw what it was like...

I only bought mine because it was £20 with 3 games.

Fair enough

The first console I got for a game was ps1. I loved final fantasy 3 on snes and had to play the next one. And 7 was worth it and fun, not as good as 6 but better than 4.

8 however was a travesty. Horrible game. Thank god for other great ps1 rpgs like lunar and star ocean 2.
