Forget whether or not you like Vin or his movies. Then clear your mind of all those other movie to video game translations that seriously failed. This game is very, very good. The story is set before the events of The Chronicles of... [ Read The Full Review... ]

Pros: Incredible graphics and lighting effects (the best I have seen on the Xbox so far); Excellent voice acting by all characters, especially Vin Diesel and Cole Houser; the game definately makes you feel like you are actually playing a Riddick... [ Read The Full Review... ]

THE GOOD: One of the best looking Xbox games out. The bump mapped textures lend a scarily realistic environment. The character models are also realistic and very well designed. Your character, Riddick, has a myriad of moves and capabilities that... [ Read The Full Review... ]

This game is in my top ten favorite Xbox games i have. The first time I played it I really like it. The graphics can get kind of grainy in some areas but most of the time are good. The plot is fantastic in this game which takes place before... [ Read The Full Review... ]

		Wish (18 Trusters)	6	12/16/2004
Ok to start off this review I will state that I am in the extreme minority here. I enjoyed the movie in the theatre and even bought the DVD. However, my fondness for the movie suggested that I would like the game. So a received this game as a... [ Read The Full Review... ]

"The Chronicles of Riddick : Escape fro Butcher Bay" was missing something. Don't get me wrong, I loved the games environment, (dark, dreary, evil) but the ending was so disappointing that I haven't touched the game once since I finished it. ... [ Read The Full Review... ]

		Intrum	9	9/28/2004
I bought it, I played it, and I loved every second of it. The moment you enter the intimidating Butcher Bay triple-max prison you can tell that just about every aspect of this game resonates quality. The graphics are just fantastic,... [ Read The Full Review... ]

		Billy Coen (6 Trusters)	6	8/23/2004
Could somebody please tell me what the big deal is over yet another (all-be-it great looking) FPS ? I was hoping that the player could at least choose a proper '3rd person' perspective to play parts of this game - especially after... [ Read The Full Review... ]

		MR. GLASS (7 Trusters)	9	8/16/2004
Wow! Good game. This game is not only beautiful, the gameplay rocks. I love the way you get to make decisions while talking to key characters. But the moment I started and I got to mess with Johns head by telling him "He was about to be... [ Read The Full Review... ]

Chronicles Of riddick is a GREAT game! You are Richard B Riddick. You have been taken to butcher bay, a max security prison that no-one has ever escaped. Through your journey to escape, you will have to use a good mixture of... [ Read The Full Review... ]

OVERALL: 8.8 Gameplay: 8 Replay: 6 Graphics: 10 Sound: 8 Story: 4 The Chronicles of Riddick: Escape from Butcher bay is one movie to video game title that's worth your time. Technically, the game sports... [ Read The Full Review... ]

		Chris Rodgers	8	8/3/2004
I was initially skeptical about this game. I haven't seen the movie, or the shorts, because they look stupid. Don't let that bias you against this awesome game, though. This game looks incredible, and I love the fist-fighting... [ Read The Full Review... ]

		PipBoy 2000 (33 Trusters)	9	7/26/2004
More than a movie tie-in and more than an FPS. First off all, everything you've heard about the graphics is true. The game is really really ridiculously good-looking, especially the shadows and the character models. Come to think of... [ Read The Full Review... ]

		Ryan O'Connell	9	7/22/2004
Everything is great about this game except the time it takes you to beat it. In just 5 or 6 days I finished the game on normal playing one or two hours a day, but its finominal other than that. You can talk fellow prison mates at Butcher Bay and... [ Read The Full Review... ]

		Robert K	9	7/15/2004
This is a really good game. The only thing wrong is its short, I finished it in about 10 hours. The graphics are good, the sound is good, it has some nice WOW points. I had a great time playing it, good prequil to the movies. They gave... [ Read The Full Review... ]

Dear readers Note before reading on…I not only focused basically on my own opinion to lay judgment on the game I have taken the time to ask a few volunteers to give their viewpoints as well…. Chronicles of Riddick is part of the movie... [ Read The Full Review... ]

Riddick, the bad ass of the universe. I was able to hold out a few weeks before jumping on this game, but as the reviews piled in I kept itching to play it. After buying it a week ago, I found people were not lieing. This game is awesome. Talk... [ Read The Full Review... ]

		godEmma	10	7/12/2004
I thought Pitch Black was great. I thought The Chronicles of Riddick wasnt a bad sequel despite bombing. But a game as a prequel? Sounded like yet another quick fix lousy movie-based game designed to strain as much cash as possible from the... [ Read The Full Review... ]

		*Jamie* (20 Trusters)	9	7/11/2004
Chronicles of Riddick: Escape From Butcher Bay had little to no hype due to the bombing of the movie, but this game suprisingly ended up being one of the years best First Person Shooters. Let me tell you why. Gameplay (10) The gameplay... [ Read The Full Review... ]

		Kevin Devine	9	7/11/2004
To put it simply this is is truely an amazing game. It may be short, but if you own a X-Box this is a must check out title. When I first read about it, the very idea of a Vin Diseal game made me laugh, Pitch Black was a horrible movie and to make... [ Read The Full Review... ]

		terrell gibbs (1 Trusters)	10	7/4/2004
I hope that Riddick is very successful, because it sets the standard for what a movie game should be. The industry standard seems to be to use the name recognition of a movie license to sell a crappy game that wouldn't have a chance without the... [ Read The Full Review... ]

		BloodBorne (3 Trusters)	9	6/28/2004
The Chronicles of Riddick: Escape from Butcher Bay is by far one of the most outstanding games from the outstanding past few months that the Xbox has had. It's packed with style, variety, and a cinematic flair that could only come from a game of... [ Read The Full Review... ]

		Lithium Hobo (22 Trusters)	4	6/26/2004
This game is innovative and new, but not my style. It really incopperates all of the Xbox's buttons, and a fast finger is needed to play this game well, as you will find playing this game is ment to make you actually feel like you are... [ Read The Full Review... ]

		VideoXPG (85 Trusters)	9	6/20/2004
When I first heard of this game back in January 2004, I instantly thought that this game was doomed from the start. I had low expectations fot this game mainly because it was based on a movie. Back in the SNES days from when I could remember,... [ Read The Full Review... ]

		matt macfadyen	10	6/11/2004
This Game was good. It has the potental to be better then it is but still something that is worth playing. the graphics in this game run very smoothly and the game does not have alot of loading areas which makes it a plus. This game is very well... [ Read The Full Review... ]
