And to me, it was $60 dollars well spent and worth the money.  I am enjoying the game more than other $60 games out there, so yeah it is subjective.  The only thing that matters is what the consumers feel is worth their $60, and by the looks of how the game is selling.....

Yes your enjoyment of games is subjective, that doesn't mean objective value and standards don't exist as I already showed. Seeing as you didn't even respond to the more relevant part of my post, have you just given up on the original point of this thread? xD

The objective value is whatever consumers are willing to spend on a product.  If a dev prices it at 20 bucks because they feel it will not sell for more, that is what they feel it is worth.  If they feel it will sell for 60...AND DOES...why are you even still debating this?

Also the games you listed are FAR smaller in scale that Sw/Sh.  A bit of a hyperbole, but I see the point you were trying to make.  Unfortunately you are arguing based on what you feel objective value is in your opinion, which in of itself is subjective.
