Games that have gone before...

Here's a question.

What do people here do with games they've finished?

Do you

a) Keep them for prosperity and to show how much of a boss you are in gaming terms

or

b) Realise you'll probably never play them again and trade them in.. after all, Christmas is coming and the goose is looking anorexic?

This question is in relation to CoD and other games too.

I keep all CoD games, can go back and play them all and still enjoy them. Most games i keep... never really bother with trading them in, usually give them to a nephew or cousin.

Mate of mine finishes a game and trades it in straight away, very few games he will hold onto.

i have all my old COD's for posterity - evev WAW which was god awful.

justsomebloke

ye I keep them all, I'm sure if I looked hard enough I could still find some spectrum or amiga games around my parents house.

Its just I've bought for example, the kick ass version of GoW3, and I doubt I'll play it again (love the huge medallion gear thingy though) and its just looking at me, quietly mocking the money I spent on it...

I've a tonne of other games which I know I'll never play again (the older ya get, the less time you have to sit on your aaaayass)...

I wouldn't get rid of the likes of CoD as the peeps I play online with might just decide to have a nostalgia night :P

I keep them.You get feck all for trading them in and I dont like getting ripped off by gamestop and the like.

If its a decent game you will probably end up playing it again.

And WaW was a great CoD game....mp40 FTW!!!

Trade in if there's a deal on.

I enjoyed WAW mutiplayer. Loved the sound of the bouncing betty! Glad to see it back albeit modernised in MW3

If I really like the game and it has replay value I'll keep em but if not then trade em. Like mgs4 for example I will never sell that game because I love it but I traded in mw2 because it ran its course and there's no reason to go back to it

Mr. Manager

I've only COD games but yea hold on to them as I mix it up every few weeks.

PerrinV2

Loads of games thrown around the place that I'll never play again but I'd rather given them away for free than trade them in

mackg

Everything goes eventually excluding Street Fighter and CoD4, hoping in a while MW3 joins the list. Might buy MW2 again, traded for BLOPs which I didn't like.

madcabbage

Kept Call of Duty 4, MW2 and stuck in MW3 now. Got rid of the treyarch ones although World at War was a decent game! If ya dont have Call of Duty 4, you aint no COD veteran!

sierra117x

ive learned my lesson since picking up my second copy of both oblivion halo wars and halo reach.........you always end up getting nostaligic

Shammy

I usually trade them in but having kept some of my favourites only for the kids to break them .

The only games I have now are mw3 ,bf3, gears, sc4 and halo wars.

I've kept most. Didn't realise why until hackers killed the internet last year and went through a load of old titles while the PSN was down. 9 months prior to hack had played 2 games and then in the space of a few weeks played

Black Ops Veteran completed & Zombies single player
MW2 Veteran completed

Resistance Fall of Man whatever the hardest level was
Oblivion
Fallout 3
Crysis 2
Everybody's Golf Single player

Did you complete it twice? When you complete it on 'Hard' you unlock 'Superhuman' mode.

From memory I did. Definately completed the second one on Superhuman, which was relatively easy given the enemies dropped monster firepower
Love the Resistance series although the purists do seem to have a lot of love for the MP in RFOM, which I missed out on. R2 was my first online shooter and I really liked it.

RFoM MP was amazing, r2 was meh, R3 beta was awful so never bought it :P
