    Not computer hardware but the PC/XBox/PS2 games variety. I have spent around $400 so far not to mention XBox Live cost :thud:

    I trade a lot of the games I buy back in for credit towards a new game. It helps keep the price a little lower, but I'd still say around $300

    I have like 25-30 XBox games. I am thinking I could easily trade in half of them. But some of them are generally found in the bargin bin for 9.99 each. Maybe I could buy a piece of gum :banginghe

    still if you don't play them, that $3 credit you get is better than them wasting space. You'll at least get that much for them.

    And the approx. $45 you get from those you don't use would just about buy a new game. And that's assuming all your games traded in only get you base price.

    Hell if nothing else it lowers the price of the 12 month subscription for XBox live. I am going to Media Play tonight and trading some in

    $50 for Nascar Chase for the Cup and $50 for Grand Theft Auto whenever new ones come out. Outside of that, very little, if anything...

    ...for the PS2 by the way.

    50 each for NCAA Football, Madden, NASCAR, MLB, and sometimes NBA. Damn, that's 250. I need to start trading.

    $10 I donated toward a game that's otherwise free, because I enjoy it more than 95% of the games I've not paid for

    that's a total of $10 since I started playing computer games in 98 or so...depends. I seem to put it all into fucking video cards anyway.
