So I've got GTA3, vice city, mafia and spiderman 3 installed atm. Mainly playing spiderman 3 a lot cause I can't get enough of web slinging around and going up against the walls and seem him act accordingly.

So..

Assassins Creed
Grand Theft Auto
Spiderman Games
Mafia

I think I tried that back some time ago. As much as I hate gfx whores I just couldn't get into it due to it looking like it was from the early 90's. The gameplay was good though.

mmm, I should have mentioned - RPG games since most of them are free roam.


True crime was horrible. Scarface I couldn't even get to run right, all the textures were missing. The hulk got very stale very quick. Just Cause I was told is crap. Boiling Point was freakin awesome but the bugs were horrible.

Can't think of much that hasn't already been mentioned or is really old by now but later this year quite a few free roaming titles will be released. Smile
(EDIT: Arena, Daggerfall, Ultima serie, Wizardry serie, Might and Magic serie, Sacred, Arcanum, Fallout 1 and Fallout 2, Divine Divinity and Beyond Divinity, Gothic trilogy, Two Worlds, Stalker, Outcast.)

Fallout 3
Mafia 2
Xenus: White Gold (Boiling Point sequel)
Just Cause 2 (I liked the first one but it got a bit repetitive.)
Stalker: Clear Sky
Sacred 2
Spiderman: Web of Shadows (Or whatever it was called, unsure how "free" it will be.)
Hulk (Same as above, unsure how open ended it will be.)
Two Worlds: Temptation (First one could have been better though.)
Gothic 4 (Might be late in 2009 though, not much available about it atm.)
This is Vegas
Postal 3 (Might be in 2009 as well, unsure.)

And perhaps a GTA4 PC conversion considering the previous titles are also on PC.

naturally all on-map strategy games

silent hunter 3(+ mods)
xcom/ufo games

while not directly "free-roam" games, as they're limited by the linear story, but you have full freedom within the confines of the current mission;
thief 1, 2 & 3
the last few hitman games
rainbow six games up till raven shield
operation flashpoint
armed assault
the penumbra games
system shock 2
terminator: future shock and skynet

what was the game that had like 3 islands... you started with jumping off the airplane... you also had a parachute and some hook thingy you could shoot cars at and glide after them? that was quite a good game, had fun elements (but got slightly dull overtime)

Pirates (remake)

hey! somebody remembers that old survival game... Robinsons Requiem? it was bloody hard!
The game begin when your spaceship falls in a planet. It was hardcore survival... you had cure yourself of all kind of diseases. You could drink some water and fall sick of disentery of something similar...

Well it's has some major flaws but you'll get a good few days out of it, I believe.

Holy shit thats a grand idea! Add some co-op play and fun death match play and that would be awesome!

Could you imagine if they put every single X-men member past and present in the game too...

This game has to be made!
