I'm going to put myself out there and say that I have somewhat of a fetish for these types of games. Most of you will probably say GTA IV so lets just keep it out of this forum. I'm waiting for Mercenaries 2: World in Flames to come out but in this wait time, what good free-roam games are out that you like?

If you're looking for some sweet Free-Roam parkour and freerunning, rent Assassin's Creed. Its a lot of fun.

From what everyone said i would go for crackdown. Saints Row isn't that great anymore. I loved crackdown. The Achievements in crackdown are SO fun and the RPG elements like levelling up and the agility orb locations make it one of the best single player experiences I have had. And co-op for that matter.

I second that. The RPG elements make the free-roaming worth doing -- you explore to find power-ups and mini-games that increase your abilities, which in turn make the game even more fun.

Oblivion - you won't find a game on 360 that offers more free-roaming than this. A big world where you can mostly abandon the main quest and just do what you want.

Crackdown is a really fun game where you can free-roam around a large city, but also have the extra dimension of being able to climb up and over every building in the game, even the huge Agency tower that dominates the middle of the map.

Saints Row is similar to GTA, but I found it much smaller, and almost claustrophobic in size, as it takes very little time to drive all around the gameworld

Good mention for Test Drive Unlimited. If you like racing games, and like free roam, then they dont get much better than this. Highly recommend this game

The best games on the 360 that offer a lot of freedom are:

(in no particular order)

- Crackdown

- Saint's Row

- Dead Rising

- Assassin's Creed

- Oblivion

- Bully: Scholarship Edition

Agree with the above mentioned games but don't forget: Bully Scholarship Edition In some ways I thought it was as good or better than gtaiv.. the missions have more variety, and it is just as funny with the rockstar sense of humor. It is shorter though, you can get most of the game done in 22 hours.

merenaries 2 looks good, I hear saints row and crackdown were good too. I guess you could consider Oblivion an open world game, so that's up there.

If you count RPGs, then Oblivion. If not, I think GTA IV is currently the best; however, I hear Burnout Paradise is great and I am heavily anticipating Prototype whenever it comes out.
