    They sell for €20 but games like splinter cell are really old and sport games never sell for much. The other two are reasonably dated so your best bet would be going to game where ive found to always have the best prices.

    But personally I always go for trading on adverts. A game for a game or a better price for your game.

    My opinion theres not point in giving retailers your used games, they offer you **** all for them! just like the 5 quid they offered you and they were selling for 20.

    Gamestop are the worst suckers for this as nearly all of their profits come from used games sales, I was offered prices such as 20-50 cent for PS2 games, and they had a big sticker on them with 54.99 euro . at the time! just goes to show they give you absolutely nothing for them. And they will sell them at prices 100 times the price they gave you for them

    Your best off trying to sell all your old games in bundles to your mates or on eBay. I personally just keep them.

    +1 for adverts here. its the perfect middle ground.
    you sell for more than the retailer will give you and they buy for less than the retailer offers.
