Most immersive/detailed open world game?

I will have to say Red Dead Redemption. I mean, that world has its own ecosystem and food chain. The whole structure and layout is very diverse and detailed.

I always loved the Zelda WW world. Sue me:P

If you're going with that, I think I'll have to agree.

The STALKER games always really impressed me - there's a ton of really cool attention to detail in those games.

Bioshock (Rapture)millerlight89

Just what I was going to say.

the world from jak 2 and jak3,atleast for me

Just what I was going to say.

I concur as well. I can't wait to explore Bioshock: infinite's game world.

Immersive would have to go to the Stalker games, the atmosphere is so thick you can cut it with a knife.

I am playing the game right now and while its a great world, it seems (3 hours in) that it is an incredibly repetitive world. Does this change at all?

I would have to say that its between Ocarina of Time, San Andreas, Super Metroid, Metroid Prime, and Tales of Symphonia in terms of what I have played. Hmm so many more too lol. Its really hard. Not oblivion or Fallout that is for damn sure :x

Just edit yor post, man.

ust edit yor post, man.

GreenGoblin2099

Fallout 3, New Vegas, Zelda games and Bioshock. All of these are near perfect games though. MRBUCKMASTER

NOOOOO, how can a fellow Zelda fan feel that Fallout 3 (and presumably NV) is near perfect and has one of the best game worlds? I am sad now lol.

Well, you have a point there... but whatever man, like SW threads didn't deviate the whole time, so don't lose your cool over such a trivial matter.

I'd have to go with shenmue!

altho for this gen deadly premonition was pretty immersive/detailed.

Lol obviously I am picking, but I just find Oblivion and Fallout 3 to have incredibly dull worlds after you play for a couple hours. They are SUPER repetitive and bland. Zelda is the opposite, as they mix it up with the different cultures and such. I hear Morrowind (TeS3 I think) has much better and extremely unique environments. Bioshock I am playing right now and it has a great world, but it also seems repetitive when compared to games like Metroid Prime.

Since the topic has changed, then there is no contest here. The most open world there is, is OUT DOORS :)

It has no loading screens between regions, no frame rate issues no matter how much distance traversed or objects in field, and absolutely the best draw distance there is. Also the most realistic HDR lighting. Only draw backs are no respawning or instant transport portals between hubs :P

"open" wasn't in the title when this thread started.

Morrowind, without a doubt. In a game with so many different races and cultures, it's interesting to see actual racism. Talk about attention to detail! Of course, that's not the only great thing about the game world. I just think that it's interesting and it makes the world seem more real and much darker.

Bah. It's in 3D, and we all know 3D is a gimmick.

fallout, oblivion, zelda

and

Home Beta

Fallout 3, AC2, Just Cause 2 and RDR

Yeah yeah, they said the same about motion controls, and OUT DOORS has 1:1 full body motion tracking!

Its sad no1 gives this game credit... Graphics aside the scale and attention to detail is beyond impressive. You walk into areas of the game and the atmosphere looks completely different just like that. A game where the world needs to explored is a must.

Red Dead is fantastic with the detail and immersiveness, but I vote Far Cry 2. You can hate it for many reasons, but the fantastic first person animations coupled with the beautiful environments make it one of the most immersive and detailed games out there.

OP got it right. RDR.

Final Fantasy XIII. Beautiful, what else can i say?bbkkristian

Pulse or walking in a straight line for 3/4 of the game?

Well,since the title of the thread changed,to me it´s clearly the STALKER games,followed by Dagerfall.

World of Warcraft, or MMOs in general.

I love Albion.
