Well I just got my copy of UC and it's most certainly NOT a "value
product." Hell, the manual alone is worth $20.00. Key-card/map is
excellent, and the box art-work is killer.

I'm going to have to figure some way to convince the ol' lady that a
new vid card is in the budget, because this damn game won't run on my
gforce2 card! 

Anyway, most "value products" I've ever bought were either several
years old, or only came in a jewel box with a PDF manual ( or NO
manual at all ), no key-card/map, no extras AT ALL, and were EXTREMELY
limited on gameplay! ( yeah, I know you all think BC has no gameplay
value, but I disagree ) 

Don't get me wrong, I can't complain on the price, nor can I comment
on the game at present. From what I've read, UC is a re-hashed,
updated version of BC3K, but it's still NOT a "value product" by any
stretch of the imagination.

Opinion may and will vary. =P
