What are your favorite old games set in a city or in the suburbs? Any type of a city setting, ancient to far future, is welcome here, as long as it looks like a city.

This game looks so good. Twenty years, and I still haven't played it past the first level for some reason.

Me too for a long time, glad I finally played it. It's somewhat like a run-and-gun like Contra or Metal Slug in structure, quite short but lots of fun set-pieces and bosses, different stuff in every level.

This looks like a weird Amiga game that somehow found itself on the SNES.

leisure suit larry 1-3 are still very underrated in that regard, especially 2, going from quiet contemporary LA streets in daylight to a cruise ship to numerous islands and airports. of course, all fall victim to the shitty cryptic sierra puzzles and timed events, but i've never seen such a realistic portrayal of the locations presented. 2 in particular has this real depressing vibe going on that i can't put my finger on.
sierra's police quest also takes place modern day but i never really played those

I played 3 when I was too young for it and couldn't get far. The Larry game I have a soft spot for is 5. At lot of it is thanks its art style. It is the most stylized (and, for me, stylish) game of the series and has the nerdiest plot, but it rarely gets talked about compared to 1 (VGA), 6 and 7.

That is a rather pretty game. It makes good use of the Mega Drive's limited palette, and the animation is really smooth. Too bad the parallax layers are upscaled and pixelated. It doesn't look like it plays better than Soccer Kid, but it's worth trying.
