good things come in threes and that
certainly applies to these amazing video
game series we meet the enemy you’ll rip
their skulls from their spines and toss
them away laughing welcome to
watchmojo.com and today we’ll be
counting down our picks for the top 10
video game trilogies
for this list we ranked the finest
trilogies in all of gaming all three
games must be held in high regard and
have to be directly related to each
other which sadly rules out gta3 as well
as the Zelda titles as there’s really no
three related titles that could be
regarded as a continuous trilogy and
finally we excluded the Super Mario
Brothers series since there are two
versions of the second game and debate
still rages about which is the proper
sequel some of these games went on to
have more installments afterwards but
they still need to be able to stand
below as trilogies i move it out double
time number 10 call of duty modern
warfare series this FPS series does get
a lot of flack for being similar to one
another but the modern warfare saga kept
fans enthralled the whole way through
with sergeant soap MacTavish and captain
John price as the stars of these three
games out to stop dangerous
ultra-nationalists no National Monument
was safe from destruction nukes go off
major characters die and you’ve got a
front-row seat for all of it
number nine jack series having one
friend become a rodent-like creature
might seem like the kind of thing that
would ruin a friendship but it doesn’t
stop these pals from teaming up to fight
evil in these action platformers each
game sees them take on new enemies but
the two work together no matter who
they’re facing
even when daxter’s smart-alecky comments
can get a bit annoying we get the moves
a jig the titles evolved a lot
throughout the trilogy getting decidedly
darker from Jack – but the gorgeous
animation and fun platforming stayed
consistent throughout our you Dorn may
be disguising you like you used to be
number eight Resident Evil series
this survival horror franchise has
become one of the most important in all
of gaming but it never would have gotten
anywhere if it wasn’t for the groundwork
laid by the first three titles wait
don’t shoot down the tail of Raccoon
City seize the elite stars members deal
with a viral outbreak in a mansion
that’s turned its inhabitants into
zombies let me take care of this then
the second game takes the horror to the
whole city before the nightmare is put
to a dramatic end by a nuclear bomb in
the third game finishing the story or
not
number seven Donkey Kong Country series
mário might be the most recognizable
Nintendo character but his old nemesis
came first and his name is on three of
the most visually inventive 2d
platformers of all time
although DK is only the main playable
character in the first game his nephew
Diddy who is his sidekick takes over in
the second game with his sidekick being
his girlfriend Dixie then she takes the
lead role in the third game with her
sidekick being her cousin kitty whoever
you’re controlling hopping around the
Isles to defeat the evil K rool in three
different roles makes for tons of
beautifully animated side-scrolling fun
number six God of War series there will
always be another to stand against you
they will fall as well
these violent hack and slash games
aren’t for the faint of heart
but they’re perfect for a gamer who’s
got an appetite for gore they tell the
bloody tale of Kratos a Spartan warrior
who seeks revenge on the gods after they
fool him into killing his family all
three games seamlessly incorporate Greek
mythology into their lore allowing you
to murder the entire Pantheon along the
way sure we could have done without the
Pandora’s Box plot twist in the third
game but downing those larger-than-life
foes can help us forget that you
disrespected the gods for the last time
Kratos number 5 halo series good to see
you master chief the first installment
in this series of sci-fi shooters was an
Xbox launch title and its first killer
app and the next two games continue to
set a high standard for the console FPS
the story of Master Chief and his fellow
soldiers battling the alien covenant
while also facing the parasitic flood is
among gaming’s most compelling space
operas appropriately bookended with
chief exiting stasis in the first game
then going back into stasis for the end
of the third after that did we really
need two spin-offs and a whole new
trilogy probably not wake me when you
need me number for Metroid crime series
speaking of great sci-fi shooters here’s
yet another one in this trilogy the
classic Nintendo bounty hunter takes a
new step in stopping a deadly sentient
element known as Faison from spreading
across the galaxy thanks in part to the
element taking on her form as Dark Samus
the new style felt like what the games
had always meant to be immersing players
in unknown worlds and setting these
games up as some of the pinnacle titles
in the Metroid series number three Gears
of War series run in a white bone house
I’ll just shoot during your asses we’re
glad we don’t have to live on Sarah
the fictional planet where these
third-person shooters are set nothing up
here just rats all three games concern
the attacks on the planet by the
subterranean Locust Horde as with each
game humanity gets more and more
desperate as they’re driven to the edge
of extinction humans are no strangers to
war after all we’ve been fighting for as
long as we can remember a great story is
nothing without a great game and
thankfully Gears of War offers intense
visceral combat to keep you chainsawing
through the whole thing number 2
Uncharted series you just don’t know
when to quit do you these
action-adventure games have plots worthy
of Hollywood flicks but that’s far from
all that makes them great protagonists
Nathan Drake faces high-flying
adventures and terrifying enemies
alongside unforgettable allies like
journalist Elena Fisher and Fran Sully
as he travels the world seeking treasure
you devil
whether he finds himself in the Amazon
in first game Nepal in the sequel or in
and around the Middle East in the third
the scenery is gorgeous and the
action-packed gameplay reaches
incomparable heights
before we get to our number one let’s
take a look at some honorable mentions

Reapers are still out there and it’s up
