Okay, hello! I have decided to start a thread as a service to everyone here, because that is how awesome I am. So what this is is a thread where you can come and list games that you own that you are willing to trade with other people and also list games that you're looking for. And I don't me warez, I mean actual games that you actually own.
Once you find someone who has something you want to trade for and is looking for something you have, PM them about it. I'd rather keep this thread for the lists only, so discussions and bartering about different games should kept to a minimum and be done privately.
The Rules!
1. No warez: This one should be obvious, but I want to reiterate. If you don't own or if you're not willing to part with the original cd, you shouldn't be trading it!
2. Be honest about the condition: I don't want to have to ask you guys to take pictures of your games to prove that they're playable or anything. If it doesn't work for you, let people know this. If it's got a few scratches, but still works fine, don't worry about it as much.
3. Once you trade, edit your posts! You don't want people to think you still have Full Throttle if you traded it already, do you?
4. Only list things you're absolutely sure you want to trade: Don't cause problems by deciding at last minute you want to keep something. If you're unsure, keep it off your list until you decide.

I can't think of anymore, but I'll add them if I do. You guys are pretty awesome, so I have faith you won't screw this up for everyone else. This is just for fun so that people can get games they've always wanted to play for games they've already played!

So I'll get us started with my lists:
Games I Own:
Full Throttle (I have 2 copies, one with a jewel case, one without)
The Dig (cd only)
The Sci-Fi Collection - Includes: A Mind Forever Voyaging, The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, Starcross, Stationfall, Suspended, Planetfall, and Beyond Zork - All text games, of course (jewel case only)
King's Quest 6 (Again, I have two copies. One in the full box, one with a jewelcase but nothing else)
Phantasmagoria (Full box, but I don't have to send that if you don't want it)
Monty Python and the Quest for the Holy Grail (jewel case only)
Monty Python's Complete Waste of Time (jewel case only)
Monty Python's Flying Circus Desktop Pythonizer (jewel case only)
Fable (cd only - I have the jewel case somewhere, but I can't find it)
Day of the Tentacle (cd only)
Clue Chronicles (cds only, that's all it had)
Frankenstein - Through the Eyes of the Monster (cd only, that's all it had)
The Settlers II Gold Edition (cd only)
The Mystery of the Druids (cds only)
Pharaoh (it comes in a little beat up box, but it works fine)

Games I'm Looking For:
Grim Fandango
Simon the Sorceror 1
Callahan's Crosstime Saloon
The Space Bar
Stupid Invaders
Also, if you have any System 6 Mac games or Apple II games, talk to me about them. I'm constantly trying to find them!

Sorry for the long post. I hope this works out well, though!

Edit: I forgot to mention, all of my 'cds only' games have nice paper sleeves. As far as condition on them all goes, they're all playable. If you ask about one, I'll tell you pc specs, if it works on XP, and any scratches it might have.

UPDATE! : I'm also after a 500W [or higher] PSU, I doubt people will want to trade games for that, so I can offer a PlayStation [with all the trimmings] in exchange, however if someone would like to talk to me about it [as I've more games I might part with if a PSU is offered] then they can feel free. I'm open to haggling.

UPDATE! #2 : Ishmael brought it to my attention that although he'd like to trade, he has nothing in my Wish-List. I'm open to offers, don't be put off cause it's not on the list - You might offer me a game that I wouldn't have considered.

Hell, slap me if i'm wrong. But i dont see a single adventure game in your list there Rustvaar  :=

Rustvaar

I shall not slap you, for you are not wrong.

I haven't really bought a game in 6 years - Last game I bought was Half Life 2 and that was spur of the moment - so a lot of my games are utter pants cause they were bought when I was around 8 / 11
