Hmm. Reading back over it, could the distinction be games that are
marketing efforts for an already-existing product, vs. games that are
designed in conjunction with a product to go to market? In the second
case, the game is a legitimate (and maybe integral) part of the
product and experience. In which case I'd say, yeah, Blair Witch feels
like it falls into the second category.
