    I don't like trading/selling games, unless after beating them I wasn't impressed with it. In terms of new games so few take my interest, that if one does come along I generally just go and buy it. but then that's only because I work for a company that pay way over what my job should pay, because they tend to head hunt people instead of asking people to apply etc.

    I don't buy new games very often. I mostly buy when the prices have gone down or when games go on sale on Steam.

    The only game that I know that I will buy on release and in full price will probably be GTA5. Other than that I don't know.

    Right on. Yeah, Im usually tired of the ones I trade in. Trade in deals are your best bet though if youve got things you arent playing. I walked out with 80$ just trading in games worth more than 3$ something like 15 games total. thats about 50% extra.

    I know if I trade in a game, I will want to play it again.

    Still own all my games. PS3, 360, PS2 and even still have all my PS1 and Sega Megadrive games.

    Not many games I feel I have to get recently. This year is an exception though. Watch Dogs, GTAV, and the a next gen console I'm not decided on which one yet.

    Crazy man.
    If I hadn't started doing trade ins I probably wouldn't have ended up here.
    Traded in PS2, got xbox later.. migration to broken white xboxes.. found OG skate demo, played the game, got it.
    I'd probably still be doing the tony hawk thing.

    You got me thinking after reading this and decided to dig out my old games consoles from my loft (attic). I found the usual suspects N64, SNES and Megadrive, but I also found my Atari Jaguar!
