The most wanted man in the universe slams into gaming!

Become Riddick and break out of the galaxy's most deadly prison in this compelling 1st person action experience - The Chronicles of Riddick™: Escape from Butcher Bay.

Set before the events of both Universal Pictures' upcoming summer release, The Chronicles of Riddick, starring Vin Diesel, and the 2000 breakout hit Pitch Black, which first introduced Diesel as enigmatic anti-hero Riddick, the game tells the story of Riddick's dramatic escape from the previously inescapable triple max security slam Butcher Bay, home to the most violent prisoners in the universe.

For this price: 6 stars!
I love RIDDICK. All the movies and all the games. Even if you don't, I think you can really enjoy these games. Two full single player games that are both fun. They are not perfect, but interesting that is for sure. The 1st game is a port, but it ports VERY well. The updated graphics look great. The 2nd game is brand new and equally as fun to play.
A 3rd Riddick movie is in the works, so you might want to play these games as they are the only way to catch up on some of the side and back story. They are NOT rehashes of the movies, rather they are new and original stories that fit into the Riddick timeline.

Sleeper hit of the previous generation together with a new chapter
Riddick on xbox was a sleeper hit. In the days where movie license games had such a low standards in people's minds the game delivered depth to the story, characters, and the setting which actually made it an essential for the movie franchise fans.

What you have with this disc is the reworked (almost remade) version of the classic Riddick that was released on xbox, and the following chapter.

Gameplay that made the game shine years back is still in tact and still good as ever, and added visual fidelity adds the impact.

However the new chapter is overshadowed by the game that was made years and years ago, and may leave you little disappointed with the 'new' content.

Still a great package and value for those looking for a different take on FPS & Stealth.
