But yeah, the Bay Area is definitely much more than SF and a bunch of farms!!!
It would be crazy. I was thinking that because Sony has headquarters in Foster City that they were going to include that, but there was no such item in sight. They definitely cramped the style of everything south of Sign Hill.

My scale is also likely off, as well. I went under the impression that the Golden Gate bridge was designed to scale in the game. It may be, but it also may not be, so who really knows?

Hillsdale is San Mateo, by the way (not the train stop, but it's in that city). The tiny strip of "San Mateo" that the game has really looks more like attempting to put in some Hillsborough aspects (basically a really affluent residential area), but it's nothing like it because Hillsborough is swamped with hills (duh) and trees.

I definitely would kill to see everything on the west peninsula, though. I know this likely isn't feasible as there are more attractive locations around the world, but again the Bay Area is much more than just downtown SF and Oakland.

I love the city to death, might never be able to see it again, so I woud die to have the option to roam the streets of San Francisco at least virtually, whenever I wanted to.

And both the city and the Bay are simply wonderful, should make for a visually beautiful game.
You have Watch Dogs 2 pre-ordered? Gamestop usually only holds it for a day or two after release.

Re: What is a dream game you wish would happen?

By pre-ordered, I meant that I have bought the disc version of the game from our local gaming e-shop, and now I am awaiting the delivery. It takes them a while because they apparently do not have it on stock. Keep in mind, I am not from US, never used Gamestop, and I bought the Gold Edition with local subtitles built in (not that I need it all that much, but sometimes it just feels good to lay back and not bother with translations), which I fear makes it that much more longer to get.

A turn-based strategy game from the Star Wars universe (similar to the ancient Star Wars: Rebellion, which I never played, unfortunately) would be sweet, too.

Its about 20 years ago, but Galactic Battleground is a lot of fun. Obviously not comparable to any current RTS regarding graphics, but its Star Wars. Plus there's a Clone Wars campaign add on that's a lot of fun.

Its insane how few Star Wars games we actually have to play currently compared to how many we had during the prequels and re-releases of the original movies.

Re: What is a dream game you wish would happen?

I want something like No Man's Sky, but more...real I guess is the word?

I want to start on Earth, be able to explore Earth, interact with people and species and be a member of NASA.

Go through the training, and eventually take flight. Maybe even do missions? Start with a flight to the moon, then do one to Mars, etc...

Maybe they built something so you can hyperdrive to Pluto, and what's that? Life!?

Discover life, discover UFOs, discover your own planet. Find a worm hole and go to another galaxy.

Take the fluid combat gameplay of the Batman: Arkham series and use it for the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
