Huh? I live in NYC and I don't think I've ever played a game set here. I know vaguely there's a Spider-Man game set here, that I never played, and at least one GTA inspired by but not actually set in NYC.

I'd love to play a game set in NYC that looks this great. It'd be my first time.

The original Deus Ex (1999) takes place in NYC for about 1/4 of the game, and the city is really recognizable.

The GTA game is set in NYC in all but name. I have played a lot of games set or partially set in NYC. It’s sort of the default “we need a big city”.
