Orange Box VS Metroid Prime Trilogy VS Dark Athena

What is the better Compilation??

Metroid Prime Trilogy

Contains: Metroid Prime, Metroid Prime 2: Echoes (multiplayer also), Metroid Prime 3: Corruption

the Orange Box

Contains: Half-Life 2, Half-life 2: Episode 1, Half-Life 2: Episode 2, Portal, Team fortess 2

the Cronicles of Riddick: Dark Athena (also know fondly as the black box, lol)

Contains: Graphically enhanced, extended version of Escape frome Butcher Bay, New Riddick online multiplayer, Dark Athena

Nothing has ever been a greater value in gaming than the Orange Box. It still blows my mind!

Well id say orange box because it has alot more variety

full_disclosure

yeah i agree.

well Metroid Prime is the best game out of all of them IMO

but comparing a bundle with 3 games to one with 5 games is unfair, esspecially when one has online FPS and the other doesn't

but i'd take MPT over HL2, HL2: E1, and HL2:E2.

Definitely The Orange Box.

Half Life 2, Episode 1, Episode 2, Portal and Team Fortress 2.

You can't find better value than that.

I'm partial to Metroid, but the Orange Box is still insane.

uh, yeah its fair. its just a comparison of compilations. the # of games doesnt make it unfair.

Metroid Prime by default. OB has short episodes that hardly count as full games for a trilogy and CoR has Vin Diesel so that's an automatic fail.

If I were listing these purely on how much I love each game, Metroid would certainly come out on top. But 5 different games with some nice variety is just too good a deal to come second.

Can't say anything about the Prime trilogy, but from what I've played so far: The Orange Box > Dark Athena. IMO Half-Life 2 has dated a lot better than Escape from Butcher Bay and the two HL2 Episodes wipe the floor with the Dark Athena campaign. Then you've got Portal and Team Fortress 2 as an added bonus... it's the clear winner. Silent-Hal

Capcom's Triple Pack could fit too.

I'm gonna go with TOB.

Orange Box.

Think of the added Modifications.

Putting a game like The Chronicles of Riddick: Assault on Dark Athena up against Metroid Prime Trilogy and The Orange Box is, in my eyes, an insult against the latter two. I haven't played Metroid Prime 3, but comparing one of the most iconic and renowned video game characters of all time (Samus Aran) to a mere one-liner-infused action guy idolized mainly by pubertal kids for being a cold and violent brute, is downright silly. Escape from Butcher Bay, on the other hand, while not as good as say, Half-Life 2 or Metroid Prime, is a great game. I found AoDA mostly dull and boring, especially towards the end. My opinion.
