11.) Do you trade in used games? Yes
12.) Do you buy trade ins? Yes

You may not get much from trading in games, but I got really tied of hoarding. Sometimes I look at a game and I say to myself, "Be honest, are you EVER going to play this game again?" If the answer is no, then that means I'm getting a discount on my next game. But I found the trade in value pretty good these days. It's like, half the value for a year old game, which is better than 1/3 or less, how it used to be.
Also, Final Fantasy games should not be made into movies, because they'd be too short. A multi season TV series is the way to go for FF.
