Try a MMO such as WoW or Eve Online. There is no main plot to be done.
The whole Eve universe is run by players, including economy, security, etc. You can be a fighter, PvPer, tradesman, pirate, miner, crafter, anything.
WoW is all about combat, PvP and PvE.
The disadvantage of MMO is that you really need a good group of friends to really enjoy the full content of the game.

Not true freeform in that you cant travel to different parts of the game world, but Deus Ex lets you takle problems in your own way. Like if you want to enter a building there are different ways you can acomplish this depending if you prefer stealth, action or a combination of those.
Its truly the most realistically desgined game based on this principle. Everything has been set up with logic and reliasm. Like a computer can be hacked if you have proper hacking skills no matter if its important or not.
Definetly check it out, its one of the greatest games ever!

Yeah, Deus Ex was a pretty kick ass game. I wasn't all that impressed with the second though.
Trying to stay away from MMOs for now. I've played most at one point or another. EVE was decent but the waiting on skills was a bit too annoying for me.
I looked up that Second Life game but all I could find was something about a virtual world game like Project Entropia. I can't say I saw the point of those games, pretty weird.
