Games with a great city setting - an IFDB Poll

I'm looking for games that attempt (with at least some success) to portray a large city setting that the player can explore and interact with to at least some depth. Games like Gotomomi, City of Secrets, and A Mind Forever Voyaging are some examples of what I'm looking for. Bonus for letting the player explore very large areas, changes over time, a transit system, detailed interactive NPCs, and a deep environment.
