I've always taken the approach that "I've had my moneys worth" if I can equate the cost of the game to a pound an hour. So if a £50 game gives me 50 hours of gameplay, I'm sorted.
My next measure is fun factor/enjoyment level. The game didn't work out at a pound an hour, how about fun factor? If I enjoyed it, then it was worth it.
My third level if measurement is simple. I'm a games collector. I collect every game that interests me. You can't put a price value on a collecting hobby because said hobby is going to be insanely expensive.
So, really, if it "feels OK" to buy that game. I will. If it doesn't ( doom eternal, last of us 2 we're sold back within a few days of purchase due to disappointment factors) , I won't, or I'll make a point of getting it second hand for sub £15.

Re: Random: Logan Paul Got Scammed To The Tune Of $3.5 Million On Fake Pokémon Trading Cards
Think of the debts that could pay off for regular households? That such a fool can afford to waste such a large amount of money is disgusting.
I think this whole story must be a fraud, I cannot believe someone can waste so much money on something so pathetic.
