The first Metroid Prime reigns as my favorite. The Phendrana Drifts area is phenomenal. I was really skeptical about a 3d Metroid but it only took a few minutes to fall in love.

Metroid Prime 1 was the best. Not only because it was fresh at the time, but the level design is better that the gameplay is better than the 2 sequels. I would really love to play this game again with Wii controls.

1st metroid prime hands down. The drifts section has beautiful music and the sense of solitude throughout the game is phenomenal. Plus, the boss fights are classic (i.e. fighting Ridley and shooting 50+ missiles at him)

The first Prime game is my favorite.

Nothing can match the first. After you land and see how gorgeous the game is, like the water coming off your visor after jumping into the little pond. The game had everything, including a better control system then the Wii prime.

I've only played Metroid Prime 3, but I absolutely loved it!

I'd have to say Corruption was my favorite, though it's a tight race. The controls were incredible, the graphics are still the best on Wii, the new characters, while underused, were pretty awesome, the music was superb as always, and the gestural actions were sweet. I never thought I'd have so much fun welding in a videogame, but there you are.

I think I like the first one the best (Prime) but the controls on Corruption are killer. I gues now, with the new controls it has to be the 1st one.

thats a tough choice, i love all 3. i remember playing the first prime several times, especially the beginning cause my memory card kept corrupting data. and then each game after that improved upon the system more and more. i'm gonna say it's close to prime 1 and 3

MP 3 was my favorite. Better presentation, story, weapons, settings than the first two. Not to mention it finally had/explained the Mother Brain!

I never got far with Prime 2 cause I sucked at using control stick for any FPS, but now it's got Wii controls, I'll have to give this boxset a try - 3 games for the rpice of 1 1/2, of course!

Man i want this so bad! Metroid Prime 1 is definitely my favorite, the first 3d Metroid with amazing and detailed backgrounds, hard bosses and awesome unlockables with connection to Metroid Fusion.

I will have to go with the original Prime. Seriously, never have I loved getting used to how the world is layed out like that since Super Metroid. Especially the first time I played the game, everything felt like it was familiar, but it was so new.

And then RIDLEY! FREAKIN METAL RIDLEY! He had the greatest battle song in the freakin game! Anyone who disagrees... probably has a different opinion. :P

Corruption.
They are all good, but adding VO and giving it a fleshed out story was just awesome.

While all outstanding games, the first Metroid Prime is the game that made the biggest impact on me. From the moment you look through the visor into the beautifully detailed environments and engage in numerous styles of combat with enemies, this game defines what a 2D to 3D transition is supposed to be like. I just have trouble deciding between this game and Ocarina for who should own the top honor in the transition category.

The original is my favorite.

When I first played it, as a wee lad, I was entranced by the incredible atmosphere created in the game.

The original Metroid Prime. Gorgeous graphics for the 'Cube and only of the first FPS that I acutally enjoyed playing.

I like Metroid Prime 3 because it felt how a FPS on the Wii should be. It makes me excited to replay the other Primes with Wii controls.

Corruption is best, but only due to the controls. Since the Trilogy has Wii-mote controls, the original will be the best.

Prime 1 for GC of course. Very original game, and still fun and challenging.

Metroid Prime.

This contest isn't 1 entry per day like the others, right? It's just 1 entry total I think.

I liked the difficulty of 2 best. I didn't like the Wii controls of MP3 at all.

But I'm posting for my sister, who totally wants me to win this for her.

I've only played the 3rd one. I never had a game cube. The idea of combining all 3 together works so well for me!

Already preordered and bought this but whatevs.

Prime 1 was my favorite, but 3 had a flawless control scheme,

A quick question as I haven't had the chance to check myself, does the trilogy include Prime 2's multipayer mode?

Gotta go with the original Prime - it started it all. But I have to say that 3 was also awesome and with the point and shoot mechanic. But honestly, Prime 1 just had that intangible feel to it. I would certainly love to go back and play that with Prime 3 controls.

Metroid Prime 1 is the only one that I ever played, so it is obviously my favorite

although... winning this would open the door to new experiences with 2 and 3 ;)
