I'm not exactly sure of the price but heres a good tip, if you decided to sell it don't wait till the day the 360 comes out, sell it a week before the 360 or sooner if you can, it will be worth more.

I'd say yeah, just keep Splinter Cell, Halo and Shenmue II (duh). I think it'll come to about 250+ at least.

$250 used seems a bit high
especially with the 360 a month away and a selection of essentially common games.

I say $80 for the system and 5-10 for each game. (except halo--good luck finding somebody who doesn't have that)
DVD unit also really doesn't add value given the number of them around (I have 2)

from what I've heard about the 360's anti-modding protection, I may be passing on it for a while.

I wouldn't trade it in, just ebay it you'll get more.

I think it'll come to about 250+ at least. Smile

No way trade ins arent as good as they used to be I say it'll be under $200 not really worth it to trade stuff in they don't give you enough money forit. My freind traded in medal of hono (not sure which one) less than a month after it came out and they gave him like $10 for it.

It isn't like the XBox and XBox 360 will have complete compatability...it's partial at best, right? It's like selling your NES to get an SNES, kinda...though some people may flame me for comparing the XBoxes to the golden consoles of the old era, but it's a similar comparision in this instance.

If you like the XBox and it's games, don't sell.

i need money for the 360 and eventually it will be fully backwards compatible

Jesus, are none of you people collectors?? DO NOT sell your Xbox! If you do, you'll want another one within a couple of years and end up spending more than you sold it for. I promise you. Just save up for an X360, and don't buy it until the first price drop. I'm sure there are plenty of current-gen games to keep you interested until then!

it will be almost full BC out of the box.

That depends if you get the Premium Package

So what? Did you sell your Playstation because you bought a PS2? I know I didn't. It's nice to have them both! And eventually you WILL want them both, so don't force yourself to buy it twice!

Yeah, I have 2 PSX models, a PS1, and a PS2. (One of the PSXes is a SPCH-1001, which has RCA A/V out.)
