I am looking out for games (PC) which consist of an open world and include killing of monsters very similar to Lost planet 2, Darksiders...can anybody suggest some good ones?

Yes, incredibly awesome but repetitive.

All that I can think of when killing monsters and open world are in the same line. Thinking of that, all fantasy RPGs fit the bill.

Open world + monster = SKYRIM

half-life and skyrim probably are more 'sensible' ones from the lot of monster-slaying games :thumbs:
some other good ones that i remember are 'undying', 'dead space', 'painkiller', 'the shadow of colossus' (PS2), etc. there are just too many ;)

BTW, so 'kola' now i understood, what was 'kola' :lol:
had read in some thread earlier that you were going to change your username to a proper name :)

Half Life is not open world IMHO. Neither are the rest except Skyrim. Edit: Except "Shadow of the colossus" as well.

One more title comes to my mind : STALKER

Edit : Fallout 3/New Vegas

And aptly named "Prepare to Die" version of this game :lol:

1. Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning
2. DarkSector
3. Silent Hill 3
4. NecroVision
5. Prey
6. Doom 3 - how come all of you forgot it ;-)

Doom 3 is not open world.

Silent Hill 3 is kind of.

Someone please edit the title of thread to include Open Word Monster Killing games.

Another good one is VTMB.

theres at least two kinds of open worlds, Skyrim seems to be the only persistent open world mentioned so far, but yeah many fantasy mmos do fit the bill
try World of Midgard, for phones, still in beta, playable with a pc client and on droids

hmm what about BioShock, fit the bill?

not proper open world
if you have played games like Elder scrolls, GTA series, Farcry,etc... you can differentiate between DA II and these

Open world and monster killing? Play Dark Souls. Insanely difficult so be ready to die a million times in the game :p

Too many games to name. I guess all the RPGs will fit in this category but it depends on the OP whether he wants a RPG or a simpler game. :)
