This has been my case ever since I first laid hands on a video game controller, and I was kinda hoping someone could help me out with this...

Okay...you've finished a game. Completed. Done. 100%. All secrets revealed, all hidden content found.......Now what?

If there aren't any other games left that interest you, what do you do? Stash it away, and let it collect dust? Trade it? Sell it? Continue playing just for the heck of it?

What if it's an RPG?

Would you keep playing until you max out your character to be the biggest, buffest god of war, or just stop?

I got some pretty good games in my collection; all I've completed, and now that it's over, I feel as though I've wasted my time with them. XP

Has anyone anything to add, share, criticize, or point out?

If it's an RPG I like to try to replay the game as another type of character if I can...It really depends on whether or not the game's good I guess

Me? I keep them for three reasons. One, for sentimental value. Two, to add to a collection. Three, in case I just want to play it again.

I'm jsut a put away person, even if I didnt like the game I dont re-sell it, dont know why but I just dont

And whats with the comment about hating old school games? hehe

I still got my SNES from when I dont know how young I was and never get bored of Super Mario Bros

Consider modding.

That's me exactly.

@ GHOST UNIT: ...Good idea. Anything else I can do that's LEGAL? I'm not just talking PC games here.

So it appears most of you just save to collect. Me, I don't really see much use for a game once it's done. And trading it in is never really a good idea, because most retail companies will put a ridiculously low value price for it.

Example: I just recently cashed in my old PSP, and about 13 games for it. And with the credit, I was only able to get a Nintendo DS Lite.

...This is mainly why online RPGs have the most replay value to me. But games with a single storyline (i.e. Ratchet & Clank, Jak & Daxter, Devil May Cry...) are only good the first and/or second time played.

Do you have pics of your collection by any chance? I love to look at game collections.

"The end", my most hated phrase, goodbye isn't fun but collecting dust seems fine by me , I dunno, I just wish that it'd go on forever, I played Fatal Frame 2 and Haunting Ground like 15 times and I still don't get bored of them, good games

Yup, I know exactly how that feels.

When I finish a game, usually I completely disregard it and buy a new one. XD But sometimes, I play through it over and over again until I get bored, THEN I buy a new one.

Another reason why my parents get so upset with me..

If you really don't plan on playing the games again, then I would sugest just selling them. You won't get a whole lot of cash, but if the game has no more enjoyment value for you, then you might as well get a little income off it. If they're just siting around collecting dust then ya might as well make a little bit of money selling them, even if it isn't a lot. Then that money can go towards anything, even if it just pays for the dinner you had on a date with some amazingly beautiful girl that you are totaly smitten over, who was just totaly impessed by how you payed for the dinner using the money you got from your sold games. What? It could happen.....possibly.

Well, that's my opinion

I know EXACTLY what you mean. I'm always sad when a game such as an RPG or another game with a deep plot ends.

VIDEO GAME PAWN SHOP, HERE I COME!!! XDDDDDDD
