Hollywood loves them, and so does the gaming industry. What game would you consider your favorite "prequel" game in an established franchise?

I kinda jump back and forth between GoW: Ghost of Sparta and MGS: Peace Walker (surprisingly, I actually enjoyed PW more than MGS 3, which was still epic).

PSP had some great prequels with GOW titles, MGS Peacewalker & Final Fantasy Crisis Core (if this counts as a prequel)..

Halo Reach was exceptional. I haven't really played Human Revolution so I wouldn't know.

Peace walker was pretty good, it kinda made a basis for the AI project of the patriots and you cant enjoy that game unless you've got a team to play with, honestly its nowhere near as fun on your own.

Peace walker was a fantastic title especially when you had people to play with and the HD versions are a good leap over th PSP version control wise.

Human Revolution.

That was a good game but not as good as the original game. However I can't think of many games that are prequels, so i guess that would be my answer as well.

What a thrill...
With darkness and silence through the night
What a thrill...
I'm searching and I'll melt into you
What a fear in my heart
But you're so supreme!

Devil May Cry 3 should get more recognition here. It's the best in a fantastic series and is considered by many to be the greatest HacknSlash ever made.

I'll also mention Skyward Sword. It's absolutely superb. The motion controls were outstanding and proved that they have a place in core gaming.

Do Metroid Prime or OOT count? If not, I'll go with Deus Ex.

DMC3 for me, put way too many hours into that to finish 'Dante must die' difficulty. Was also pleasing to see them resurrect the franchise after the mess that was DMC2.

[QUOTE="BigBoss255"]MGS3. Peace Walker and Halo Reach are the worst.razgriz_101

Peace walker was pretty good, it kinda made a basis for the AI project of the patriots and you cant enjoy that game unless you've got a team to play with, honestly its nowhere near as fun on your own.

Peace walker was a fantastic title especially when you had people to play with and the HD versions are a good leap over th PSP version control wise.

Peace walker is cool, but the level design is terrible, also hated how every mission was literally 5 minutes long or such.
