Best Game Value: Burnout Paradise

Who would have guessed that an EA published game would have picked up the Best Game Value two years in a row?
Criterion Games, the developers of Burnout Paradise, have put forth great effort in supporting their game, releasing a lot of new (and free) content, which significantly improved their title. The Burnout Team thanked the CAGs for the award and added, "Burnout Paradise is a recession busting game and the perfect antidote to the credit crunch." Currently priced new at $19.99, I think Criterion might be right.

A very honorable mention to Fallout 3, who finished a very close second.

 

[CaptainJoel]

I think the best value in my opinion is God of War Collection.

 

[KingBroly]

Metroid Prime Trilogy

 

[DrMunkee]

Sonic's Ultimate Genesis Collection.

Soooooo many games.

 

[formerroadie]

Metroid Prime Trilogy

 

[KillerRamen]

Disgaea 2: Dark Hero Days (PSP). It's sooo good.

 

[polishpride212]

Episodes from Liberty City

 

[maxim2boobles]

Fallout 3 GOTY

 

[the_punisher]

Episodes from Liberty City, $40 for two full-length games

 

[distgfx]

Street Fighter IV, I've put sooooo many hours into that game. Stop looking at my avatar, I'm totally 100% not biased.

 

[Mr Dude65]

Halo 3: ODST

 

[Sir_Fragalot]

Metroid Prime Trilogy

 

[estofan]

I second Disgaea 2 on the PSP. So many hours spent on it for a mere $29.99 (the UMD is still in my PSP today!)

 

[WormFOODx]

Fallout 3 GOTY

 

[Nebenator]

GTA IV: Episodes from Liberty City

 

[fizzywix]

Marvel vs Capcom 2 becoming available for download for $15

 

[drktrpr1]

Metroid Prime trilogy for sure, three huge games with waggle for $50? Can't beat that.

 

[ExeterBlue]

I'm going with the dark horse -- Pinball Hall of Fame: The Williams Collection for 360 and PS3 (now just $20!).

 

[Mafiacrooks]

Fallout 3 GOTY

 

[LegendK7ll3r]

God of War Collection.

 

[bsesb2003]

Mpt

 

[integralsmatic]

Seconded Sonic's Ultimate Collection. Eliminated the use of buying some sega games individually and plus Its mostly ever sega classic released on one disc.

 

[spcheap]

Dragon age!

 

[knightsdwn]

God of War Collection for sure.

 

[tripredicus]

Another vote for Fallout 3 GOTY. Paid $60 for it, but wasn't one bit disappointed when it dropped to $40 a month later.

 

[elessar123]

Fallout 3: GOTY, followed by God of War Collection

 

[SuperTongue]

Fallout 3: GOTY (even though I didn't buy it as I had all the DLC on PC already).

All the DLC really added many more hours for me personally. GTA IV's EFLC comes close, but just not long enough.

 

[Donnums]

Pinball Hall of Fame: The Williams Collection for 360. I have to vote for this criminally underrated gem.

 

[Squarehard]

Dragon Quest V hands down

 

[Porksta]

I gotta go with Pinball Hall of Fame as well.

 

[killer ladoo]

god of war collection!

 

[icedrake523]

Metroid Prime Trilogy. Can't beat 3 great games for $50 in a cool tin. Plus it was $20 a few weeks ago.

 

[NeoGutsman]

Metroid Prime Trilogy.

 

[Ardrid]

GoW Collection

 

[aihuman]

Red Faction Guerilla.

 

[funkflexmctough]

sega collection for best value

 

[Z_meista]

God of War Collection

 

[ZerotypeX]

Street Fighter IV gets my vote

 

[100xp]

Sonic's Ultimate Genesis Collection. (40 games + 9 unlockable games)

 

[blu_yu_away]

Metroid Prime Trilogy, getting this for $20 was amazing. Following close behind would be Fallout GOTY

 

[Indignate]

Fallout 3 GOTY and only because your getting the DLC along with the original game. If GTA had done this, it would have easily been the better value.

 

[sadunk]

Borderlands. So addicting and so fun.

 

[IAmTheCheapestGamer]

Red Faction Guerrilla gets my vote too.

 

[sasukekun]

Modern Warfare 2

 

[200STM]

mortal kombat collection for ps2

 

[hpv]

Borderlands

 

[dino88]

Fallout 3 GOTY

 

[icebeast]

Monster Hunter Freedom Unite (PSP)
Payed $30 for that game and sunk tons of fun-filled hours into that game; and that was without ever touching multiplayer.

Runner Up:
Metroid Prime Trilogy (Wii)
Even already owning and having beaten each of the games in this trilogy when they came out, I still got this game on release and have enjoyed replaying the truly amazing series; I've never gotten three games I loved that much on the same disc for the price of a single game.

 

[phoenix529]

I haven't even played Metroid Prime Trilogy, but getting the first two great games plus the third for $20 at BB was an amazing deal. Also a close second to Fallout GOTY.
