My ideal video game:


I want a big open world game like say set in NY or London or Paris, or some other big city where there's nothing but open world exploration and finding clues to find stuff. No killing and shooting, but just lots of open world adventuring ... To me that would be much more fun then what we get now..

A kind of virtual, open world scavenger hunt. I could dig that. :)

NPCs could hire you to find missing objects or pets. Find hidden shortcuts throughout the city. No muggers, no guns, no violence. Just relaxing exploration. You could even build up your lost and found business, eventually branching out into other cities to maintain the game play.

Meant to make a correction on my list. Deus Ex was on PS2, and DE: Human Revolution was on PS3.

Exactly and that's the kind of game I'd llike, and you could use vehicles and stuff just without the aggro and no time limits..
 
I've always wanted a god game. You know, a game where you can create, and build, and command people to do as you say, and they do it; A place where you're all powerful. The game Black and White was like that, but it had too many limitations for my liking. If I'm god, then I'm god, no limitations. It would be neat to see what I could do with that kind of power, and an open sandbox.

The closest thing to that I have ever played was Populous and Populous II on the Sega Master System, the PC versions sucked
 
My favorites are naval strategy games, a category that pretty much no longer exists thanks to the rise of the first person shooters. I was addicted to Harpoon and Jane's Fleet Command.

Yea I wanted to play that (Black and White). Was looking forward to Black and White: Creatures, but was disappointed when it got cancelled :(.

Wish there was a game similar to Fable only out for Sony or Nintendo. It would be fun to be able to choose which path to take.

Indie games have you covered. How about Battle Fleet 2?

I've had my eye on other Steam games, but my lowly little tablet doesn't have a smart enough OS or enough memory to run the games. Gonna have to upgrade before I can start playing them.
