Liked it

One of the better movie video game tie-ins, the updated Xbox-classic Escape from Butcher Bay, and the inferior but still enjoyable Assault on Dark Athena are good, gritty fun.

Recommended to stealth, action, and Riddick fans.

Didn't like it

I didn't enjoy it a great deal, don't see what the fuss is about.
If you're a fan of the movies then this is a decent enough companion piece but as a game I didn't like it much.

A decent game that has awesome melee combat. I never played the first one because I'm awful at stealth games, but I did pretty well in this game thanks to the inclusion of guns. Good game for someone who's into the Riddick story.

I'm not a big fan of Dark Athena. Butcher's Bay was a pretty amazing game when it came out, but this game didn't match up.

I just finished beating Butcher Bay for the first time in years, and I have to say that it is still just as awesome as it was back in 2004.

Butcher Bay was one of the most visually striking games on the original Xbox, and this new version is still very impressive. I popped my old Xbox version in just for comparison, and the difference was staggering. Starbreeze did an amazing job of bringing this campaign into the next generation.

The thing I love most about the Riddick games is the diversity…
