Looking to sell Xbox 360 and games...how much can I expect?

So I'm pretty much done with my 360...its just been collecting dust for the last few weeks. Where would be the best place to sell it? I am definitely not doing gamestop, because I want more than 50 cents in return.

Here's what I have:

Xbox 360 with 120 gig harddrive
Two controllers
One headset

As for the games...

Assassin's Creed
Bioshock
Burnout Paradise
Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare
Chromehounds
Dark Sector
Dead Space
Far Cry 2
Fight Night Round 4
Gears of War 2
Ghost Recon: Advanced Warfighter 2
Il-2 Sturmovik: Birds of Prey
Grid
Halo 3
Hitman: Blood Money
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2
King Kong
Lost Planet: Extreme Condition
Mass Effect
Medal of Honor: Airborne
Mirror's Edge
Rainbow Six Vegas: 2
Rock Band 2
Stuntman: Ignition
The Orange Box
Ultimate Alliance
Forza 2
Grand Theft Auto 4

And then I have a few arcade games I downloaded, like Castle Crashers, N+, Chessmaster Live, Catan, and one where you roll a marble ball around.

Using your best estimation, how much do you think I would get for all this? Should I pack some games in with the Xbox, or sell them all individually? What way would earn me the most money? I'm thinking maybe looking at the prices of these games (used) at gamestop and knocking off 5-10 dollars. Would that be a good way to price them?

Thanks.

P.S. Wow, I have a lot of games. Never really realized it until I typed it out. Luckily most of them were gifts.

I hate you and you hate me.

    You'll probably never be able to sell the whole thing to one person. Most likely you will have to split it up. As for price, check ebay and Amazon for used game price then knock a few bucks off of that, assuming you cover shipping. Gamestop used price is useless because they tend to sell for a lot more than ebay or Amazon used.

    I didn't have as many games, but I sold my Elite for about $350. I agree. You'll probably need to sell some games separately.

    Elites are down to $299 brand new right now.

    Yeah, sell the games separately. Find out what Gamestop sells them for used (just look at their online site), and put your price about $5 - $10 below their price. Post 'em all up on Craigslist. Maybe offer package deals? Buy two expensive ones, get a cheap one for free.
