I guess this is a big fat YMMV since, at every Media Play I've ever been to, the games you trade have to be ones that they sell new for 19.99 and up. And I don't believe this applies to ANY game. It has to be 49.99 or less (sorry, keep dreaming about that Steel Batallion). Also, some Media Plays will not take PS1 games, and some have been known to exclude certain new releases.
