I have decided to do my bit for the forwarding of the cause for the proliferation of objective reviews of interactive media content by providing a review of The Stanley Parable.
This will provide readers with a useful method of deciding if The Stanley Parable if worth investing their time and money in. It will avoid all the wishy washy ideas of subjective analysis and simply provide you, the reader, with what you need.
You will, at the end of this process, be capable of making an informed choice based not on a demo that fails to show any game content but via my exploration of the game, as it exists.
As this game is a non-linear progression through a narrated experience I have decided to log how I saw the game through a series of progressive snapshots of the game. Please respect the spoiler warnings I have had to use in some places and not hover to uncover them unless you have already purchased and completed the game.
The full gallery, including the spoiler tagged images, will provide people who wish to have a walk-through with the most direct way of experiencing the game, as it exists. This includes a meticulously detailed path to the best ending.
Now please click through and explore my review of The Stanley Parable.

After taking in that gallery, you have concluded exploring my review.
I am sure you are now ready to make that important purchasing decision.
Edit, Dec. 2013: Steam currently automatically expires spoiler tags from screenshots after 4 weeks. This has kinda ruined the joke of this post when you follow the various links to the gallery.
