do these older games have ANY resale value?
going through some of my boxes, and came across some older PC games. Do they have any sort of resale value, or is the trash the best place for them?
Doom, Doom2 and Quake.
A couple of the older EA Sports NHL Hockey versions (dating back to around 1993)
X-Wing, Tie-Fighter and some of the various add-ons.
Front Page Sports Football and Baseball 1997.

If I had to guess, I'd say probably not much value for the sports games. X-Wing and TIE Fighter may have more value, depending on their conditions (boxed, with instructions, etc.)... I saw a few eBay listings up to $25.
I'd recommend running through eBay to check the price climate and then decide.

I do agree that, depending on the condition, X-Wing and Tie Fighter might generate some bids on Ebay.
But I kind of feel Doom and Quake will be a hard sell at this point, primarily because I often see these for free on abandonware sites. Again, if they come with a box, manual, etc. that could change things.

Man, I used to love the Front Page Sports annual baseball and football games. Too bad Sierra completely screwed the pooch about 7 years back and dropped the series.
