Have you ever bought a game for a hot girl in the game?

[AwkwardTurtle]

Oddly enough no. I'm just too tight uptight with my money to buy a game based solely on one female character's appearance. :3 That's just me though.

Just in case anyone accuses me of something based on my Catherine icon:
I bought Catherine because it was made by Atlus, specifically the team that works on the Persona series, and I love Atlus to death. They release tons of quality games in my opinion. Another reason that influenced me in even going so far as pre-ordering Catherine is because I've always loved Shoji Meguro's music in the Persona games and I was looking forward to hearing them in Catherine. The third reason that pushed me to buy the game was the fact that it looked like a real foray into the complications of romantic relationships. I was definitely intrigued by a game that finally seemed to be seriously examining the various aspects of the romance and relationship. A topic seriously unexplored in the majority of gaming.

Have a bought a game for a hot girl? No.
I have, however, refused to buy a game because there was some ridiculous pandering objectification of women. Dead Or Alive Beach Vollyball? Not on your life. I bought Ninja Gaiden...but couldn't stand Rachel's...everything. So I sold the game back...and note, I keep almost every game I have every bought, with very few exceptions. Ninja Gaiden was one.

 

[Sir Rammington Steel]

Yes, no, maybe so. I've never bought a game for anything less than I thought it would be fun and entertain me. Simple as that.

 

[AdeptaSororitas]

Yup, any game I can make a custom character in. Okay so no, not really, but then again I don't really need hot chicks/dudes in games. But that a personal thing *shrugs*

 

[MorganL4]

anyone who had bought DoA must answer yes to this question ( yes even if you bought it for reviewing purposes).

 

[OmniscientOstrich]

No, sounds like a waste of money to do that.

Precisely my sentiment. In all honesty the concept of using sex appeal as an incentive to buy a game/see a film is baffling to me. If I want porn, I'll watch porn, if I want to play a game then I'm going to do so for the actual gameplay.

 

[scorptatious]

Bayonetta. Of course I also bought the game because from what I've seen from screenshots it looked incredibly fun. And it was.

 

[AngryMongoose]

Now, I'd like to say no, but I wasn't always the paragon of virtue and discipline (and cynicism and misanthropy) that I am now, so I can't guarantee it. Certainly there's nothing on my steam list where that's the case.

 

[EHKOS]

Not really. I mean, you can't really do anything. I do find the Catherines quite attractive though that may be my hentai fetish acting up again.

 

[Kaisar]

Every Tomb Raider game until the thrill of Laura started to fall under the horrible gameplay.

 

[Ultima Shadow]

Team Fortress 2.

(what, Pyro counts...)

 

[ThatLankyBastard]

I bought Catherine because I wanted to try as kind of game I've never played, and I've heard nothing but good things about Atlus's past games...

...the Twin Drills is just a bonus!!!

 

[Dr. Pepper Unlimited]

Hahahaha, absolutely not.

This ^

I don't even see why that would persuade anyone...ever.

 

[DanielBrown]

Well, I do own the Tomb Raider trilogy for PS3, but no... I haven't bought a game just because of promise of hot girls.

 

[Smooth Operator]

Hmm, probably Tomb Raider games when I was hovering around the 13 year old mark.
Because that was the closest I could get to a girl, plus I had no interwebz to see some naked ladies.

Now I got interwebz, problem solved

 

[t3h br0th3r]

Why would i spend money for something i can get for free?

I buy games based on my perception of their quality, not because there is a hot chick on the cover.

most people who can swing $300 for a game system and $60 for games can also afford a computer and some-kind of internet access.

 

[Neptoona]

I'd never buy any game unless I knew it was good. Getting bonuses or surprises in games are way better! I really wanted to play RDR because it appealed to what I love. It wasn't until I played it, that I realized John Marston is a babe!
