Most comprehensive and accurate reproduction of a city ever in a video game?

What is the most complete and accurate reproduction of a real-world city in a video game?

Test Drive Unlimited and O'ahu. I know it's not a city, it is one better, it's an entire island. This is the only game I know of that ever attempted an 1:1 replication of a real world location. Everything else does highly condensed versions afaik.

Driver 2 reproduction of Miami was absolutely on point and Watch Dogs: Legion London replica is actually pretty accurate.

New York City was very well replicated in the Marvel’s Spider-Man. Everything about NYC 🗽 was fully represented and recognized in the game.

I've been wanting to see how well the city scape is in that game. Probably one of the best I imagine.

Assassin's Creed Syndicate has a great recreation of 19ᵗʰ century central London.

AC Syndicate scenery of London is pretty nice. Another I hope to play soon is AC Unity in Paris. I've been to modern Paris, so it would be interesting to see how the game would compare in the 18th century.

Exactly - There was something very peculiar with the game Assassin's Creed Syndicate when I was looking for its resemblances with London in the modern day.

Well a lot of it is pretty much the same.  The Houses of Parliament, Tower Bridge, Buckingham Palace and most of the streets are still there and as they were.

Yep - it was so detailed that you don't need to query it too much. It's just like New York City with The Spiderman.

This is true - I can't believe I didn't remember about the spiderman games...

Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020) is a game that replicates cities to a tee, and will even simulate real world planes going by in real time. Part of the reason why its system requirements are so ludicrously high is because it's rendering the world as best it can from an aerial view, and the detail on the ground is amazing. Or it was, an update has recently caused the game some trouble.

Yeah - it's actually a very good replica of the city. I'm actually a good of the Spiderman movies ever since I was a kid.

Yeah, this one has some realistically well crafted graphics. Even Arkham Asylum was good too. I played only the earlier versions of spider man on PS3, and the game was fair enough. But I never played the latest ones though.

It's been long I played that game spiderman. I never played it again after my play station two days, I never played it on play station three, because I am more involved in racing games nowadays.
