I've just got into games with really nice scenery, and was wondering if anybody good suggest me some good ones. Ones I've found so far are:
Oddworld Series (Especially the first 2 games)
From Oddworld: Abe's Oddysee

So people, got any other awesome scenery filled adventure games to add to the list?
Grim Fandango had a lovely art style. While a sequel would make it suck, a game set in the same universe at the same quality would be amazing.
Bethesda games.
Dante's Inferno had some cool scenery
I heavily agree on the Oddworld series.
Zeno Clash.
Uncharted 2
Alan Wake, the view of Cauldron Lake and Mirror Peak outside the Doctor's house in Episode 3 is beautiful.
Red Dead Redemption
Was gonna say Myst too before I saw it in OP.
And Crysis to an extent.

And Far Cry 2, but the scenery in both of those gets boring after a while.

I think this is pretty nice
Kane & lynch had great environment in the first couple of levels
Bioshock infinity

I've never played the 3D Oddworld games, only the Abe ones, but those screenshots looked very generic
I think some of the vistas in EP2 are pretty awesome.

I don't count them as the true oddworld series. I've only played Abe Odyseey and Exodus.
They are both awesome.

Beautiful game.[/QUOTE]
You could atleast tell what game it is (Figured now due to the URL though)
It's Uncharted 2.
Tetris......
Nah, kidding.
I really liked the Fallout 3 scenery.
Im surpised nobody has said this yet.
Minecraft.
[sp]There's one in every thread like this btw[/sp]
Fallout 3 was bland a drab.
Shadow of the Collosus is one of the best I've seen.
Morrowind (espically with infinite view distance mod) great as well.
The Myst series is good.
[QUOTE=Zackin5;25291310]Just Cause 2 was very pretty to me.[/QUOTE]
I agree with this statement.
Half-life 2 did a fantastic job of making its scenery atmospheric. Especially the train station at the start. Mass Effect was also quite good at spectacle.
Halo reach. I like the spire.
