Boomtown Review: Elefunk
Reviewed by James ‘eVOLVE’ Hamer-Morton:
"I’m always talking about price. Whether it’s a cheapo PSN or XBL game, or an expensive peripheral reliant monster purchase, the price of a product does come into a review. Relative worth is an important factor in deciding whether or not a game is worthy of your purchase, and it is because of this that I came to Elefunk with a less favourable attitude.
Okay, it’s only a fiver. £4.99 isn’t a lot of money, and has become pretty standard for these PSN games, but I spotted that the price on the US store was $4.99, and a direct dollar to pound conversion is never fair. That makes it twice as expensive for us to buy as our star spangled banner waving friends, and rather than looking at the game as a £4.99 game, my first impression was of a game worth £2.50 that we were being taken for a ride with. (Though it was nice to see it out at the same time over here.)"
