Have you ever bought a game even before buying the game console itself?

[ils411]

So, has anybody bought a game for a game console even before buying the console itself? I for one bought MGS4 and GTA4 even before I owned a PS3. I also bought  Star Ocean 4 even before I got an Xbox360. I did this to make sure that i do buy a PS3 and an XBOX360

MGS4 and GTA4 I was not disapointed and was worth buying it first to make sure I got a ps3. SO4:TLH on the otherhand was pure crap but the xbox360 was worth  the other games i bought after the  piece  of garbage that is SO4.
