DarkChronos' post made me think. Do we take price into account on this one? It was marketed as a game with a free controller but we all know it was the other way around. For a game that was damn near free (you know you were going to buy another controller, anyway), do we grade it on a curve?

-Was it not enough fun for $40-$50?
-Was it a ton of fun for $0-$10?
-Does price not matter and it's only the experience that counts?

To rate a game properly you absolutely must factor in the original MSRP, because it has a significant impact on the value of the product. The sole question that reviews need to answer is if a game is worth its money. That's something professional reviewers often forget about, because they get to play all games for free, so their scores tend to be too high across the board.

I agree.  But in this situation, depending on whom thou art, you have to consider whether the game was free with a controller or whether a controller was free with the game......
