What do you do with your games when you finish playting them?

[DarkHuntress]

I keep them but gamer friends of mine trade theirs in. What do you do?

 

[Marter]

I keep all of mine. Because of that, I have a large collection of games right now. I like having a lot of games though.

 

[1080bitgamer]

I keep them for my younger brother to play when he gets to that age, and I also plan to give some of them to my children when they grow up in the future. I like to plan ahead, what can I say?

 

[DustyDrB]

Sell them. Actually, I just gave my one of my roommates my entire Xbox collection (which is about 8 games - mostly all less than a year old - because I generally sell them all back). Thus begins the retirement phase. I'm now a Wii only gamer.

Seriously, if you're probably not going to play them again, why keep them? It doesn't return any of your cash and it just adds more clutter. And I hate clutter.

 

[Worgen]

depends, if its a big name game I might trade it in since it will always be obtainable but for smaller name ones I tend to hold on to them, altho if its something I think Ill want to play tho again and again I keep it or if I really like something with the art or its got really good packaging Ill also keep it

 

[J9387]

Keep them. I get the urge to go down memory lane quite often. The 360 ones usually get loaned out to friends, usually the shooter type ala Mass Effect and Rainbow 6, interest is never expressed in the more stereotypical RPG's like Eternal Sonata or FFXIII

 

[Julianking93]

Put it back on my shelf and play something else.

 

[Canadamus Prime]

Keep them. If I've beaten it, it's my trophy, if I haven't then there's always the off chance I'll go back an beat it later.

 

[ShadowKatt]

If it's an RPG, like final fantasy, I'll put it away for about a year or so until I feel like playing it again. But otherwise, I'll keep it around and play it again and again.

Skeet practice >

 

[Gigaguy64]

Put them away till i want to play them again, or if its a Fighting Game, trade it in to get the newer version of Said Fighting Game once it comes out.

 

[The Root Beer Guy]

They go back on the shelf or my Steam library page until I'm ready to play them again. I'm very selfish when it comes to my games, so I never lend them out or give them away.

 

[mrdude2010]

the problem is i keep them too long so by the time i recognize that im never going to play them again theyre only worth $2 to the people at gamestop

 

[migo]

I delete them. I used to throw them on the floor so they'd get scratched, now I leave them in the CD case, download the ISOs and enter the key.

 

[Kevlar Eater]

They collect dust on my DVD shelf while my newer titles get my attention, until they too become victims of my boredom and gather dust.

I'm gonna need a new DVD shelf because my current one is maxed out.

 

[blankedboy]

I keep them. Alot of my games are on emulators or Steam anyway, but I keep them.
If I really think I'm not going to play them again (usually after a couple play-throughs), then I trade them in. Sadly, EBGames gives you about $20 for about 15 games.
Cheap bastards.

 

[kebab4you]

Keep em, I might not play them again but I like to save all my old game just for my own sake.

 

[AlmostLikeLife]

Sometimes I keep them if I liked them and might get the urge to play them later. More often than not, I just sell them off to get money to buy other games.
