Yes.

In fact, just about all consoles I’ve ever bought were for a single game. Before that, when I was a kid asking for video game systems, those were because of one game as well.

But I expect consoles to have other games I want. Sometimes this doesn’t end up being the case and I end up really only playing a lot of that one game and minimal time on others: Gamecube (Animal Crossing), Wii U (Xenoblade Chronicles X), and PS3 (Assassin’s Creed 2*) are the main examples.

Actually, I bought PS3 specifically for FF13, not Assassin’s Creed 2. I enjoyed the first 20 hours or so of FF13, despite feeling some things were missing over previous games (namely towns). But then I reached this area where the story abruptly stopped, it was opened up, but didn’t have much of anything interesting. It was kind of jarring to the experience, so I figured “Probably a good time for a break from this game and come back when I’m ready for this style of game,” and I never played it again… perhaps I will in the future.

But regardless, Assassin’s Creed 2 was a game I picked up, finding the idea of exploring Renaissance era Florence to be interesting. I found I quite enjoyed that one, and ended up playing it a lot.

Hey. Reply to my post in The Witcher 3 thread ya Bum. 😉

Man you really do love Xenoblade. I can't understand the love for it though, I have Xenoblade X Chronicles on cart for my Switch but every time I try to get into it, I feel as if the game is playing itself, I eventually fall off cause of that, it's not quite Overlord Unicorn but there is little agency in combat. 

Will do. It's just my days always seem to run into walls (times when I should be settling down to sleep for the next day), and Witcher 3... talking about that game requires a lot of words. It's the sort of joy and dread I get when I want to write about Xenogears.
