So unless you're just cleaning house/having a garage sale it's rarely worth it to get into the whole buy new then trade in for the next new game GameStop cycle. Plus almost all games have a very limited "freshness" date, meaning there's usually a small window when your used game is actually worth even half of what you paid for it (assuming bought new upon release). So unless you're one of those guys who always rushes to finish a game as soon as possible, again, it makes little sense to do trade ins. Speed run guys should probably stick to Game Fly. I'm terrible though. I even hang onto the games I barely played due to just being dull and not worth my time. Mainly because they're not worth anything anyway. I actually regret getting rid of many of the games I unloaded in the past because like any old movie you enjoyed, sometimes you just want to go back and revisit it, even if it's just for a few choice scenes. |
Also maybe this is just me but sometimes when you revisit an old game, movie, tv show, you don't always remember the story 100%. Our memory isn't that strong. So when you revisit it, it's almost as if you are experiencing something new. I bet if I re-watched The Simpsons starting from season 1, I bet I would laugh at a lot of jokes. Because you don't remember everything, a witty comment can catch you off guard and turn into a lulz moment.
I bet if someone asked me to give a synonypsis of FF7's plot, I probably would do a very shitty job of doing so. Because I haven't played FF7 in like 10 years and forgot huge chunks of the game's story.
