Andrew "..forget action games..."

You're right. I expect to much from the Action/RPG releases.
Must try Strategy & adventure.
I have Sims II in my 'Bargain brought, still sealed' collection & Grim 
Fandango.

IMO Bioshock 2 is much better / less unpleasant than the 1st.
The games are pretty self contained so don't you need to play  the 1st one.

Mr Robs suggestions look good. Both sort of Deus Ex / early Max Payne / 
Assassins Creed-ish
bit Tomb Raider-ish  .

Is that  'Watch Dogs' essentially Adventure ?
