GameStop is the only place to really trade in games. They're. Necessary evil

You can trade in games at bestbuy, and I'm pretty sure you can trade them in at Amazon and Walmart also. The bigger point is why are you trading games in? I don't understand why there are still people out there renting games for $40 - $50 still. You do know they have red box right?

Only games worth keeping are multiplayer games you play often enough. Anything else is just taking up space. I don't replay single player.

And I buy used games :ufdup:

At the moment? Nope... They're trying to eliminate the used market... and it won't work... Whoever figures out how a gamer can transfer the license to another person for money will win, and it's coming...

I agree with you for the most part.... I'd rather have physical media simply because it's tangible and can be resold... it's a millennia aged business model that greedy people are trying to turn on its ear since digital games/media is in its infancy... shyt ain't going to work tho... Regulations haven't caught up with the technology yet, but it will. It has too.... even if they gotta invent virtual currency
