Idunno what it is, but I love a good game set against a dark, dystopic atmosphere.  Here is IGN’s list of the top ten gaming dystopias.  Many of my favorite games are on the list, FFVII, Mirror’s Edge, BioShock, and of course, Fallout 3.

10. Final Fantasy VI – Balance/Ruin
9. Syndicate – Unnamed corporate nightmare
8. Jak 3 – Wasteland
7. Final Fantasy VII – Midgar
6. Mirror’s Edge – Unnamed metropolis
5. Deus Ex – Futuristic cyberpunk Earth
4. Beyond Good & Evil – Hillys
3. Fallout 3 – Capital Wasteland
2. BioShock – Rapture
1. Half-Life 2 – City 17

Ahhh City 17, such a gloriously depressing atmosphere for the greatest FPS of all time.
