Replay is really the only thing I look for actually.
If the game is an 50 hour thrill fest, I likely couldn't care less, as 50 bucks is simply too much for 50 hours, and yes please refrain from all the usual value assessments
I'm not afraid to drop 50 bucks on lunch with the wife and son.
I like games I can play and play and play and play and play some more.
Civilization for instance, you never 'beat the game' you only occasionally win that current match.
Some of my games are simple and hard and some of them are complex and not really hard, just complex in design.
Chess is an easy game to learn, yet against a good opponent very hard to win.
