Well if it's just choosing from the list I suppose it's Mass Effect too... wait... Actually I think I'll go with Ninja Gaiden classic cause that's what I grew up with.

For me its the gta trilogy before rockstar went downhill in the hd era although I did like tbogt and gta iv. Absolutely cannot stand that shitstorm that is gta online, singleplayer is ok though. Won't touch the multiplayer on that game ever again although I do miss driving my sabre turbo that thing was my baby.

Alright then, it's either Xenosaga, Mass Effect...
or Metal Gear Solid - The Solid Snake Trilogy
(Twin Snakes - Sons of Liberty - Guns of the Patriots)

But since I haven't played XS or ME in years, but keep on wasting my time with MGS over and over...

Can Snake Eater, Peace Walker, and The Phantom Pain be considered as a trilogy?

It's more like Snake Eater - Portable Ops - Peace Walker.
This would be the Metal Gear Solid: Big Boss Trilogy.
(or 'Prequel Trilogy' if you like)

As cool and grandiose as The Phantom Pain is, it's more just a bridge the gap filler (between Peace Walker and the old MSX Metal Gears) rather than part of Big Boss' life history.
I say this because of the big plot twist in Phantom Pain, which I will not spoil for you. But suffice to say that when you get to it, you'll understand why it's not so much a story about Big Boss himself as it is more about your own choices as the player in making Big Boss' decisions for him.

Thanks for no spoiling it. I cannot wait. The only reason I ask is because I heard people saying MGS3, Peace Walker, and MGS5 were a trilogy because they say they have a shared story and it didn't sound right.

So if The Phantom Pain is just a filler, then what does Metal Gear Survive falls as, if it is supposed to go right after Ground Zeroes?

Ha-haaah....

That's not even Metal Gear anymore! lol...
It has obviously little to nothing to do with the story of the Snakes.
It's so un-Metal Gear looking it's plain they're just exploiting the franchise name to ride the bandwagon of squad based shooters that's evidently becoming trendy these days...
A slice off the Overwatch pie as it were...?
I'm just hoping it's doesn't end up being another Umbrella Corps.

At best, it could be another semi-interesting sidestory I suppose...

If you got attached to your men from Peace Walker...
