GPX | 1,369 Posted November 7, 2019 Share Posted November 7, 2019 (edited) What are your favorite stack of three games? They could be a trio from: - trilogies - within the same franchise - similar theme titles/cover Edited November 9, 2019 by GPX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darkchylde28 | 1,546 Posted November 7, 2019 Share Posted November 7, 2019 Probably the original SSI Gold box Trilogy (Pool of Radiance, Curse of the Azure Bonds, Secret of the Silver Blades) which ended up as a quadrilogy later on (+Pools of Darkness) or Wasteland + Fallout + Fallout 2/3. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strange | 1,700 Posted November 9, 2019 Share Posted November 9, 2019 (edited) I loved all three Kingdom Hearts and their side games. Sue me. If you consider the Super Famicom/SNES era of Final Fantasy a trilogy, I’m a huge fan of 4, 5, and 6. I’d love to be able to say the Bravely trilogy but we’re still waiting on the third game.

OptOut | 8,883 Posted November 9, 2019 Share Posted November 9, 2019 The Donkey Kong Country trilogy, surely?! Can there be any other answer? My favourite is number 2 Diddy's Kong Quest, but they're all fantastic imo. Shout-out to the Metroid Prime trilogy also, all top notch games although it kinda felt like they were running out of ideas by the time they got to the third one. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Makar | 1,946 Posted November 9, 2019 Share Posted November 9, 2019 Definitely dragon quest monsters joker, joker 2, and joker 3. All 3 are perfect games with each one adding great new mechanics that made the games even more fun. I can't think of any other 3 games in a series that were released one after the next where all 3 were incredible. Okay I take it back. Mega man battle network 3-6 were all really good. Even Pokemon screwed it up though. First and 2nd gen were great, 3rd was just okay. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kcaz | 6 Posted November 9, 2019 Share Posted November 9, 2019 A real trilogy? Super Mario Bros. 1-3. Nothing needs to be said about these. A made up trilogy? How about Link's Awakening, Oracle of Seasons and Oracle of Ages. I adore these games and have played through them multiple times. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GPX | 1,369 Posted November 9, 2019 Author Share Posted November 9, 2019 Very awesome choices in all the above! Personally, I would say gaming-wise: 1. Super Mario 64, Super Mario Galaxy, Super Mario Galaxy 2 (N64/Wii) 2. Shinobi, Shadow Dancer, Revenge of Shinobi. (Arcade/Megadrive) 3. Streets of Rage 1,2,3. 4. Street Fighter 2, Steet Fighter 2 Turbo, Super Street Fighter 2. The above games are the only notable franchise that I've genuinely completed in full. Collecting-wise, I have a ton of favorites, but this is probably my current favorite thus far: The Trilogy of Atelier Iris 1,2 and 3 - extremely rare (but pretty) Pal Australian versions, all evenly graded VGA 85+. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OptOut | 8,883 Posted November 9, 2019 Share Posted November 9, 2019 Very nice little trilogy there GPX. I'm more of a gamer than a collector, but I HAD to complete my collection of Mario Party games for N64. US collectors don't realise how expensive those 3 games are in PAL land, especially Mario Party 3 which I had to spend 80 quid on! Also, I felt naked without Sonic Advance 3 when I had the other two, so I bought that as well! Then again, all those games are great to play too, so win-win! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like we had initially played games at a similar era with your mention of Sonic and DK series. Regarding the Pal N64 set, loose carts is very manageable apart from a few of the top 10 or so rare games. Mario Party 3 is one of the rarer ones, but if you want to up the challenge/costs, try collecting a CIB Australian variant collection. It will make you cringe!

OptOut | 8,883 Posted November 9, 2019 Share Posted November 9, 2019 I've already got Snowboard Kids 2, ken Griffey Jr. , HSV adventure racing and StarCraft, cart only of course. I was lucky enough to pick up StarCraft for 5 pounds from GameStation in Southend about 15+ years ago, so getting the others was trivial after that. As I said, not a collector so much, so boxes and manuals aren't my thing, but carts yeah I got em! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hyrulevyse | 151 Posted November 9, 2019 Share Posted November 9, 2019 I've always been impressed with the 3 16 bit castlevania's for 3 different systems in a span of 3 years. Rondo, CV IV, and Bloodlines area all unique, and all awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
