The Largest Single Player World on Console

When it comes to walking swimming driving flying etc.

Has to be Just Cause 2 easily?

It almost makes me sick when thinking about it in a good way LOL

It even surpasses DC Universe Online Cities Gotham/Metropolis combined and most MMO's

P.S. I think JC2 may be the size of Japan or bigger *OMG*

*Update*

Just Cause 2 - 400 sq. miles

Other Large Open World Single Player RPG Video Games Available on Console

Grand Theft Auto San Andreas - 13.6 sq. miles
Grand Theft Auto IV - 6.8 sq. miles

Morrowind - 10 sq. miles
Oblivion - 16 sq. miles
Skyrim - 16 sq. miles

I'd say Daggerfall, but that is a PC game.

When it comes down to distance you have to walk id say Fallout because a lot of locations are underground and require more walking.

To original post

"Daggerfall is the second to largest Elder Scrolls game to date, surpassed only by (Elder Scrolls)Arena, featuring a game world estimated as being 161,600 square Kilometres (63,125 square miles) — roughly half the size of Great Britain — with over 15,000 towns, cities, villages, and dungeons for the player's character to explore."

I keep thinking Minecraft has the largest world if minecraft counts? (X-Box minecraft)

It's Daggerfall. I hate the game, but it's easily the largest video game world out there.

Arena and Daggerfall are the only two games in the series that let the player experience more than one province of Tamriel (although this will be possible in The Elder Scrolls: Online too). The actual gameworld is substantially larger than Morrowind or Oblivion. The game utilizes randomly generated content to generate a massive world (around 6 million square kilometers), without much effort on the developers' part. The world has hundreds of towns with several hundred dungeons, along with 17 specially designed dungeons that were part of the game's main quest.



Welll.... looks like bethesda have this thread won already xD


Which's funny because i'm actually playing bethesda games for like the whole summer and i'm still not done with them lol.

does shadow of the collosus count somewhere? pretty sure it isnt as big as daggerfall, but its got to be up there. The enemies them selves are probably half a mile long.

Hmm interesting...

Dragons Dogma should at least be noted... SO MUCH WALKING, which in terms is it's strength, how else will you get EXP and find that super random rare weapon and find that cool armor piece or even take down the Mini-Bosses throughout the game which it prided itself on? Also how will your pawns become smart as well?

Big enough I guess

About the size of Connecticut

Hell, no. It's not even remotely close.

Yeah, I'd say Daggerfall too. I can't think of anything bigger. However, it's worth noting that the world is also awfully bland and boring.

Minecraft easily. Big, big minecraft.


EDIT: Realized it said "on console". So, for me the biggest is probably Skyrim really, never payed that much of attention to the size of the worlds :)

My vote would probably have to be for Minecraft as well.

apparantly minecraft can get to be 8 times the size of the earth if you have enough memory for it. it just keeps generating stuff.

I wouldn't count Minecraft though. It just generates new worlds that are potentially endless. Daggerfall has a single (albeit computer- not manually created) enclosed world.

Also, Minecraft can potentially have the largest world. Whether you actually have the memory for something that surpasses Daggerfall's world is another question.

I havent play much open ended single player game.. but for me.. so far is skyrim...

The biggest i've played is Test Drive Unlimited, the map itself is pretty big, mostly composed by trees and grass though.

Edit: a comparison

I know it's nowhere near as big as some of the game world's out there, and the fact that it's not open world, I would have to say The Witcher 2 should have a spot somewhere here. The world is approx 30 sq. miles which is expanded with DLC and such. But it still lacks that open world experience.
