A few dollars at best for all but THPS4.  THPS4 might get $10-15 at most.

You really get screwed trying to trade games in, especially considering these are old titles (minus THPS4).

You're better off trading games (try tradegamesnow) or selling them on ebay.

Just my advice.

Ymeegod's right- sell them on ebay or at a garage sale if you want some money. They only give you store credit, too. I (stupidly) traded Black and White in at my local EB a week after it was released for $10.

My Gamespot gives trade in prices over the phone...
also they give cash instead of credit if you want it, but it's less % than credit.

here are estimates for the games you listed:
-Project Gotham Racing $5-9
-Morrowind $8-15
-Amped ?
-Sega Gt and JSRF pack $6 each
-NBA 2k3 $4
-Turok $4
Tony Hawk 4 $15-20

Due yourself a favor and get a prepaid phone card for this and future calls to them.
Gamespot is alot easier than bothering with Ebay, you don't have to deal with checking the site everyday, waiting for your money, shipping the games out, etc, etc...
ok so you will make like 5-10 bucks less sometimes on a game, but it's much easier and satisfying to goto Gamespot, get your money in 3 minutes, and have a new game in under 6 minutes...
it's good to sell old games to Gamespot if they're rare, I got 50 bucks for Chrono Trigger from them

argh! ill KILL you joeamis!, i would have paid $50 for chronotrigger! or maybe even $60!! i need that game -__-

if i can speak in the defence of ebay, i have had only 1 hassel ever on ebay, some stupid lady wanting to charge me $50 US dollars to post chronotrigger to me, i told her to cram it with wallnuts (figureatively speaking) and subsiquently i still need to get chronotrigger.. but then you have to work out if the hassel is worth the extra money to you, personally i would try selling them to people at school? you would get more money than from a buisness like EB or gamespot/stop thingy (we dont have them in australia)

Why don't you get "Final Fantasy Chronicles"? I admit I'd very much like to have it for SNES, but I'm not about to drop 50+ dollars on it.

I'd sell you mine, PIAC, if I had a second copy.  I don't, so sorry.  I have looked, though, in case I was feeling generous, to buy a second copy for you, but everywhere I look the game is either not listed at all, or if it is, it's back ordered.  I haven't checked e-bay, but that kind of stuff worries me.  If I find a copy, and I'm not hurting with finances, I'll let you know, in case you want me to get it for you.  I just wonder how much it would cost to ship all the way over seas. ??

aparently 50 US dollars acording to the person i won it off on ebay but that is a steamy load that made me cry, so close yet so far. around $5-$10 us at the most is my guess, the postige for PGC's T-Shirt and DVD wasn't alot of money, so meh i dunno

before you kill me Piac know that I paid $98 dollars for Chrono Trigger the day
it came out.
years later I sold it to Gamestop for $55 bucks
then years later I bought it back from Gamespot for like $55.
then years later I sold it to Gamespot for $50 (although the manager at Gamespot broke his breach of contract with Gamespot, and paid me that $50, in cash, under the counter because he wanted it)
