"Pain is such a vital part in realizing one's existence."
~Albedo

Why Xenosaga of course. :)

Second place goes to the Metroid Prime Trilogy, simply off the strength of the first two. Anyway, this has been, since its release, the most underrated RPG series ever imo due to the reverance that Xenogears is held in. If people would let go of their nostalgia for Xenogears they might be able to better appreciate the awe that is Xenosaga.

/mini rant :P

Differing opinion? Discuss?

Mass Effect is only a hair behind the Metroid Prime trilogy imo. There are a few things that ME just blows it away at but it's hard to find really any defects in Prime.

Metroid Prime. It's probably the closest I've seen a game get to perfection -- not once, but three times. Fantastic gameplay, the dialogue/cutscenes aren't intrusive and don't overstay their welcome, the level design is great, the shooting is alright, it has the best of backtracking we all loved from the classic Metroidvania games, the combat is good and the pacing is perfect. I can't place a flaw on it, I kid you not.

Halo Quad..

Mass Effect is the right answer.

Good to see Metroid Prime getting it's due respect, Echoes is actually my second favorite individual game ever. Still not as life-altering as Xenosaga though, story is just that epic, boss fights are just that good.

I would say God of War but I think a 4th games is being announced anytime. And I would say Half-Life but nobody knows how much will the 3rd game take.

I'm going with the first Spyro trilogy on the PS One.

Metroid Prime, Xenosaga and Mass Effect are the three obvious choices. If Clear Sky wasn't kinda poor, I would say Stalker as well, but...

I enjoyed the Prime trilogy. Just like to add that the first one was ahead of its time. A brilliant game, indeed.

The only one worthy of the position is Metroid Prime. If people are actually telling the truth about ME3's ending, I laugh at anyone who picks Mass Effect over Prime.

Mass Effect. The ending to the trilogy is urgh but the journey to get there is beyond anything I've ever seen from a game.

If Sonic 3 & Knuckles counts as one game rather than two, the Sonic Genesis trilogy. If not, the answer is the Streets of Rage trilogy. Both just take a dump on all other game series in existence.

Diablo after the release and extensive playtrough of Diablo III. Atm., it's a tossup between the Gothic trilogy and the STALKER trilogy.

And Xenosaga is nothing compared to Xenogears., which is the greatest RPG released on consoles ever. I don't feel any nostalgic feelings for it.

Hard to say.. there's not THAT many video game trilogies as most games are either 1-2 franchises or 4 or even 5+ (e.g. Metal Gear, Mario, Zelda, Final Fantasy, Grand Theft Auto) Those are the real best franchises in gaming so there aren't that many that just stop at 3.

I suppose God of War or Metroid Prime.. but I feel a 4th of both coming soon...

I can't think of one franchise that's had consistent quality throughout 3 games.

Stringerboy
Crash Bandicoots. The first 3 games were made by Naughty Dog. Everything after that wasn't Naughty dog. All 3 games were excellent and scored very well. Mass Effect or Gears of War would be my other choices.

Metroid Prime Trilogy and Stalker.

GiantAssPanda

Didn't know Stalker was a trilogy, thought there were only 2. I suddenly feel very foolish lol...

   You should feel foolish :P

I would like to say this but I can't get Shadow of Chernobyl to work on my PC. I get to the main menu then after I choose to start the game it doesn't just kicks me out of the game.

Also shouldn't you of listed them in the order they are chronologically so it should've been Clear Sky, Shadow of Chernobyl, then Call of Pripyat?

Since I can't list S.T.A.L.K.E.R. I will list Metroid Prime Trilogy.

I would have to say Metroid Prime Trilogy...

Mass Effect is 2nd, even if the ending is possibly the worst way to end the series.

I can't think of a trilogy where all three games are of high quality. So I pick Uncharted since at least two games are really good.
