I keep the ones I really like; Batman, Wolverine, Enslaved, Blur, Darksiders and a few others.

The rest, I sell them for credit at Amazon.com. I stopped going to EBGames/Gamestop about a year ago.

I trade on Goozex and sell on Amazon, about 90% on Goozex though. Great site.

I keep 95% of my games. The only ones I get rid of are the ones I simply did not like.

Ive been using craigslist as of lately. I have sold some on Amazon.com however.

I feel like if I'm not enjoying them, then someone else should be

By the time I get to a game, it's typically so far out of date that the trade in is not worth it. I find that I can lend them out and let other people experience the game.

Keep them because I almost always want to revisit years later, if only for a few hours.

Every spring it seems like Gamestop does a "trade x games, get xx% more" deal. If I have enough games I'm not playing, I do that. I know I could get more money through ebay/CL/whatever, but the extra time those take isn't worth it for me.
