    I have an original Xbox, and a fair amount of games for it, some good (medal of honor, halo etc) some not so good - I haven't used it in a long long time and I was considering getting rid of it. Does anyone know whether any of the game shops would be interested in taking it off of me?

    Sell the lot on ebay or adverts.ie for €40-50. Clear space in the house + get cash for something else..

    That's what I did.

    Ask gamestop, if you buy something they might do something for you

    Any way to hook XBMC up as USB these days or do you still have to use the network cable and FTP program? That was the major drawback for me.

    Sorry for bumping an old thread but not really worth it's own...

    Doing a clear out of the parents' place and found about 12 original Xbox games, where would be the best place to trade/sell these? They are mostly muck kids games so not expecting loads for them but would be nice to get something!

    You might be lucky to get a few quid for them but they arent worth much these days.
