Default Some advice for open-ended games.

Well, after logging nearly 600 hours playing Oblivion, I find the other games in my collection are sorely lacking in freeform play. I've got a distinct craving for games with open ended gameplay. Can any of you recommend any games? Past or present are fine. As long as they can still be bought somewhere. I found an old favorite that has been remade. Star Control 2 was an excellent game for it's day. The source code has been released and it's now fully functional under the title Ur-Quan masters. Not sure if any of you have played it, but this new version is easily as good as the old and you should check it out if your a fan. A pity nobody did the same for Starflight.

Anyway, I'd appreciate some good recommendations. I have no particular preference for genre. I tend to like any game, aside from sports or hunting ones. I would load up SH3 but it's not really freeform per say. No matter how many ships you sink, it has no effect on the war effort. It's simply an illusion of freeform. Maybe the fourth entry will remedy that problem. Anyway, thanks in advance!
