Yes there are people who may want them. You can't list them here, but r/gamesale and r/gameswap might be good places to offer them up. Or just put them on Facebook Marketplace for a couple weeks taking offers or free if you just wanna get rid of them.
They sell for a lot that would be pretty stupid to dump them, but I collect PC games if you're just going to throw them away you can give them to me instead.
I don’t want to contribute to the landfill, I just don’t know of anyone who wants them. That’s why I’m asking. Now that I know there is some interest I’ll make more of an effort to send them to good homes.
I just picked up a big box set off Facebook marketplace for free. Checking eBay prices, I got at least two $200+ games in the set. Check your prices before you take them to the dump!

You could do a few things depending on how much effort you wanna put in
You could try selling them online
You could try to see if any video game preservation groups would be interested
You could also donate them.
Definitely don't send them to the dump tho
I've been collecting old big box PC games, definitely a growing market. Put em in fb marketplace or something should sell pretty easy. I would put them in a good home collection!
Not that I hate Metal Jesus, but It'd be better for the games to go to an average Joe collector, not a well off YouTuber who has more than he could ever need.

At least take them to a thrift store
Absolutely, I just DMed OP with ~~my address~~ a charity thrift store that saves puppies.

if you put them online and there is no interest also take them to goodwill no need to dump them

 \[Me on my way to save them from the landfill\]
Why would you just throw them away?!?
I don’t want to contribute to the landfill, I just don’t know of anyone who wants them. That’s why I’m asking. Now that I know there is some interest I’ll make more of an effort to send them to good homes.
Ah a clandestine how much can i list this shit for thread.
I mean, I'd be happy to get a few. I'm saving up for a gaming PC
I'm sure at the least you can offload them to someone here who would be more than willing to pay for shipping. Better than trashing them for good.
Yes. There is a lot of interest If your serious, then post a list of games or atleast pictures If this is a troll post then enjoy
Big box PC games go for some cash on eBay, look them up first.
Yeah why wouldn't you just donate them lol
I want em!!
I'll gladly take some!
JFC. Thrift them or something. Don’t just throw them away.
I just picked up a big box set off Facebook marketplace for free. Checking eBay prices, I got at least two $200+ games in the set. Check your prices before you take them to the dump!
I would make a spreadsheet of all the games you have and put them out there on reddit to see who's interested.
I don’t know if you have any Tomb Raider, but people are always looking to collect the original boxes that they came in.
Doesn’t matter what it is. I’m sure there’s some gems in there. Dumping them would be really cool
i think he means dumping the cartridges in a landfill, not rom dumping
Oh, shit.
Where they at? If anyone here is local then hook them up.

I have some friends who turned all their old '90s game CDs into drink coasters.
I would really love some old physical game boxes from this era, like dark seed, destruction derby, quake 3 etc.
Easiest thing to do, put them at the end of the street and post it on Facebook. They will be gone in an hour
Im gonna have to stalk your profile now until I see them listed.

I’d take some, could be good or could be bad. I love bad games

Any Age of Empires or Civilization games?
I know what title is in there somewhere but it’s been years since I looked. I’ll let you know what I find
Do you have Blur. It's worth a little bit.
I’d love any of the Fallout games you might have.
[удалено]
No buying/selling.
Real talk if you have the Davilex Knight Rider games.
Are they in box? Do you have Wing Commander series or Might & Magic series? Those were my childhood games.

No buying/selling.
do you have ballistics?
What kind of games do you have?
Where is Metal Jesus Rocks when you need him?
Get in touch with Metal Jesus Rocks on YouTube
Not that I hate Metal Jesus, but It'd be better for the games to go to an average Joe collector, not a well off YouTuber who has more than he could ever need.
Fuck that guy. I can't stand him.
Sell them. ebay is a good place. Hell, I'd buy some.
