Like Mikael, I don't tend to worry about price if its a game I really want to play, but am happy to wait for the price to drop on most other things that I might play.
I will though be annoyed if I pay top $ for a very short game. I will be equally annoyed however if it lasts a long time but turns out to be a dud.
How short it has to be before I get annoyed is a bit of a moveable feast, given that games tend on the whole to be shorter than they used to be. Its a vibe kind of thing; if I really liked the game I will be more forgiving than if it was just an ordinary experience.
And I couldn't care less about replayability, largely becuase if I do replay a game I am likely to have forgotten the bulk of the puzzle solves anyway.
Which is a long way of saying that 'overall quality' is my value quotient.

Excellent caption, Soot!

I've watched a lot of the videos of the people from other countries here for the World Cup loving our food and hospitality but my favorites were how excited they were over the 4th of July fireworks.

A great finish!

I don't remember why I was disappointed but it might have been because I was comparing it to GK2. I do remember loving Discworld and The Dig which I think came out at about the same time.
