Anyone up for swapping out some oldies with which you're finished?

I've got a couple:
- one WWII set: Medal of Honor Allied Assault, Battlefield 1942 and Secret Weapons Over Normandy;
- EA Sports 2003 Golf; and
- 2003 NASCAR

A bit dated, but worth the price of your media mailing something my way in exchange.
More later,

    Games I'm looking for:

    Command and Conquer Generals (I own this one but lost the first disc and the serial key. I paid $50 when this first came out so I really don't want to buy it again)
    Unreal Tournament 2003 or 2004
    Clive Barker's Undying
    Far Cry
    Chronicles of Riddick

    All the other games I have are actually my wife's, and she's not interested in swapping. She's not interested in trading games, either :p

    Damn... not that I have anything awesome up for grabs, but now have a number of lists, but no swap action... at least public. Has anyone struck a deal?

    If not, I'm starting to think we may need to just start a virtual game pool... Throw one in and you get one out. Any thoughts?

    Its building up steam. If nothing else, it opens the dialogue for potentially selling games. I think that is something we all would be interested in. Selling some of these titles on the cheap.

    More games I can part ways with:
    High Heat 2002
    LOTR: ROTK
    Soldier of Fortune 2
    Dronze
    Elder Scrolls III
    UT 2003
    UT 2004
    Ghost Recon
    Duke Nukem Manhattan Project
    Hitman 2

    Crap Shizelbs. I just bought UT 2004. ****... jk.

    Update on Half Life 2. Steam sucks **** and I hope everyone who works for Steam kills themselves. I reinstalled it, but I can't play because I don't remember my old account information. I have my CD Key and since it's already registered to someone else(ME!), I can't play because I can't login. **** Steam...

    Well that rules. My computer managed to forget my Steam login, and so do I. I didn't uninstall or anything.

    **** like that should be illegal. I understand they need to protect against piracy, but really its too much when the fair owner can't use it as they see fit.

    You'll still like UT2004. It has one of the best multiplayer experiences out there. Quick, easy to use, very active community. Most of all, its a fun and very replayable game. And seeing as how its kinda old, I bet you got a good deal on it.

    Yeah, it bites. I paid $50 for it shortly after it came out. I've emailed them about it, but no reply. I probably haven't forgotten my login info. I use the same screen name for just about everything. Probably a fuckup on their part, and I'm the one paying for it. HL2 is a great game. One of the best I've played. I wanted to play it once last time before I sent it out to a member on here.

    I think I good deal on UT 2004. $16 new. And it was the GOTY edition. I recently reinstalled the original UT. It's amazing how well it holds up after all these years, and it's still just as addictive as ever.

    I am total up for loaning out all and any of my 360 games for a 360 game in exchange. I can't play enough 360, and I love more gamerpoints.

    I own;
    Perfect Dark Zero
    Madden 06
    Call of Duty 2
    Project Gotham Racing 3

    I've got quite a few PC games, ranging from RPG's, to FPS. I wouldn't mind having a PC swap, if it all leans that way. Let me know what everyone thinks.

    BTW? How would we agree on shipping? Everybody pay their own? We should get that all lined out, and I think more people would jump on board! Try games for a few months, and let others try... all for the price of shipping. It's a great idea! I mean, I've got 15 different games that I never play anymore.. why not let others enjoy.

    Hmm, maybe if we had a set standard on shipping or something. Like, borrow the game, not keep it. Let everyone try it out. I think it could take off... any ideas?

    Yeah I think that was the original plan. When someone's done with a game, just pass it on. I wouldn't mind letting folks borrow my games, but letting someone have them, nah, I don't think I could do that. We need some rules to go by, of course. As for shipping, I think that should be left to the person sending the game. It would only cost a couple of bucks to mail out. Let's not make things complicated. I think it would be a waste of time to charge for shipping. Especially with Paypal fees. If you were mailing, is it really worth writing a check or getting a MO for just a couple of bucks? I don't think so.

    Agree...

    Idea was to swap. If to some that means they want recall rights, no biggee as long as it's known up front.

    I held back one or two, myself, that I might want another crack at someday, e.g., "Outworld".

    Just list what you have for permanant trade and what you have for "loan" trade, and let's see what happens.

    I don't need any myself right now as I am currently going into sleep depracation over CivIII - Complete...

    Good. I agree. 2 bucks to ship or so is totally fine with me. I also agree that the "Owner" should be able to request the game back after it has been played... What's the point if you can't, because someone may just ask for all the games and store them up!!! :) Not that I was planning on doing that mind you.. hehehe. Ahem.

    Regarding CIV3, just wait until you get your hands on CIV4!!! BLOW's 3 away. But I burned months on 3, and loved every minute of it. Wait until you play on Diety. Muhahahahaha....
