Basically I have a stack of games here I'm thinking about selling. I'll list them, give a reason why I bought them, a reason to keep them, and a reason to sell them and you tell me what I should probably hang on to and what I should definitely sell. Keep in mind I'll more then likely be selling these at a yardsale, not at Gamestop or on Amazon.
Lost Planet 2 (PS3)
Why: Got it for free.
For: Gameplay is fun and challenging and I do genuinely love the games visual aesthetic.
Against: Only a scant few hundred people still play online these days and most of them are Chinese and ridiculously good at the game to the point where it's almost no fun.
MAG (PS3)
Why: $15 at Target.
For: Playing with/against 255 people is a pretty unique experience.
Against: MW2 is already my go-to shooter and MW3 is just around the corner.
Enslaved: Odyssey to the West (PS3)
Why: I played the demo on 360 and liked it.
For: Never finished it (But I already know what's going to happen so...)
Against: Gameplay gets stale fast. Plus the PS3 versions looks and runs like ass.
Fallout: New Vegas (360)
Why: I liked Fallout 3.
For: Never finished the main campaign or Lonesome Road
Against: Game got incredibly boring to me. That might have something to do with the atmosphere being nowhere near as good as Fallout 3's.
Brink (360)
Why: Hype, hype, and more hype.
For: The game is a good reminder as to why I shouldn't give in to hype and buy things on Day 1 at full price.
Against: Online is a ghost town.
Gears of War 2 (360)
Why: Wanted to see what all the fuss was about.
For: Can't really think of any.
Against: I didn't like it?
And here are some games that while they aren't in the same pile the above games are in, I'm thinking about adding them to it:
Bioshock 2 (PS3)
Why: It was cheap and I liked the original Bioshock
For: Campaign was enjoyable and I genuinely enjoy the multiplayer, which I think is vastly underrated.
Against: Can't really think of any other than that I don't play it as much these days.
Halo: Reach (360)
Why: Peer pressure.
For: The campaign (Which I haven't finished) is great and I enjoy Horde mode.
Against: The friends who begged me to get it never play it.
Modern Warfare 2 (360)
Why: Tearing up the opposing team with an AA-12, that's why.
For: Still enjoy it.
Against: Like I said, MW3 is just around the corner and the online already lost a ton of players to Black Ops.
So, what should I hang on to and what should I definitely sell?
