My number one trilogy would have to be Baldur's Gate, followed by God of War.

Honestly one of the best games I own, across any platform.

Haziqonfire

Best $70 I've ever spent. But I think people are forgetting about the Super Mario Bros. NES trilogy. Say what you want about SMB2, but 1 and 3 speak for themselves in terms of sheer quality and impact.

Metroid Prime trilogy, but each game got worse and worse. I guess it wasn't possible to be as good as the first.

Even though I am not so sure about the ending, it HAS to be Mass Effect. God damn game will go down in legends (for one reason or another :P)

Based on quality of individual games: Gabriel Knight.

But when considering trilogy as a whole Mass Effect's save game system makes the best trilogy ever made.

Oooh Gabriel Knight was good too. Also, Quest For Glory.

Actually, Quest For Glory was doing the import save system in the 90's.

Way before Mass Effect was even thought of.

Halo, Metroid Prime.

Both are great franchises but neither have the depth and character development as well, story and presentation as mass effect. Gameplay is in the eye of the beholder. Though the sheer options in every combat sequence in ME make it a strong contender in this catagory as well....

Maybe but really? Youre not gonna say with a straight face that metroid prime and halo trillogies have mass effect beat in that area.... its pointless.

I usually just ignore SMB2 and just use Lost Levels in it's place because I loved played Lost Levels.

But Super Mario Bros. 2 althought it wasn't a Mario game in Japan it was originally supposed to be a Mario game.

Art, sound, setting and lore.

The setings and lore are both vastly inferior in Halo and especially Metroid.

It could be different if we would talk about extended universe (novels etc), but in-game wise? Not even remotely close.

I can see your point about the lore, but hell no to the setting part.

Not really. MAss Effect details it's setting far more during the course of the game than either Metroid or Halo does.

So? It's possible to prefer a series because of the actual setting and not the details.

My sentiment too. Regardless of it's ending, the memorable journey across 3 games is so immensly satisfying and will stay with me for a long long time.

Ace Attorney 1-3

It's the only trilogy that I've played in its entirety. >.> Not a bad choice though. :)

Have a hard time thinking of Mass Effect as a decent trilogy, let alone the best out there.

The first game had horrible combat (you could have heavily-modified Mk. X Spectre gear and still be firing at basic enemies for an eternity, especially on Insane) and the best side quests, taking place on six empty planets and a generic transport shuttle, had barely any plot. In short, a really bad but essential intro to the greatness that is Mass Effect 2 sans resource gathering.

Haven't played Mass Effect 3 but if what I've heard about the ending is true (and I've heard much), well...
