I'm just not sure it was a good one. If I price this pile of shit 100$, it doesn't make this pile of rags suddenly worth the 50$ price tag because omigod, even the SHIT is worth 100 dollars!! Plainly that pile of rags is a STEAL at 50!!!

Here is how I kind of see it. This isn't the BEST comparison either, but I think you'll get my point I'm trying to make. I'm trying to illustrate why I'm apprehensive about a 50$ price tag.

For 50 bucks, I could buy a game that seems to have high expectations by most people and no one's announced being disappointed with, but that I don't really know much about besides its predecessor. This predecessor was quite enjoyable, but short, giving me only about a day or so's worth of total game play.

For 25 bucks or less, I could buy every major D&D/Forgotten realms-based RPG older than NWN, or I could buy a pack with a whole bunch of old star wars games (random side note, this pack was only NOT purchased because pretty much the ONLY game I was interested in it was KotOR). While, yes, these games are older and plainly they are priced less for this reason, I could conceivably get MONTHS of game play out of a pack. I have a pack of older D&D-based RPG games--that also includes a non-forgotten realms Strategy game--that I have played only a portion of at this point, and still have the opportunity to enjoy for a while because RPGs have incredibly re-playability, even WHEN they're ancient.

So do you kind of see my point? It's not necessarily that Portal 2 isn't worth 50 bucks compared to other games. It's that, when it comes to bang-for-my-buck, does Portal 2 add up? Do I get an appropriate amount of enjoyment/dollar?

Does that make sense?
