Off the top of my head, Battlefield Hardline and Sleeping Dogs / True Crime are the major recent ones.

But I've always wanted one that actually had you respond to dispatchers, that sort of thing. True crime kind of had that early on, but there's a lot less of it in Sleeping Dogs.

SWAT 4 (and maybe 3, I only ever got into 4) is the shit.

there's a game called Rebel Cops that looks kinda interesting.

it's an isometric tactical game, kinda like XCOM.

The old Sierra Police Quest games had you following exact procedure or losing points or even the game.

That's what SWAT 4 is like - on easier difficulties you can maybe get away with just blasting people without even announcing you're a cop, but on the harder difficulties you have to do everything humanly possible to subdue and detain everybody and collect all their weapons.

Oh there's also Rescue HQ - it's like a tycoon game where you build up your emergency response station with police, paramedics and firefighters and send them on missions and stuff. Less actual police work but still a fun concept.

I thought SWAT actually was Police Quest and they just changed the name for marketing?

But yeah, Police Quest, L.A Noire, Sleeping Dogs.

I think it was, but since the gameplay of the first SWAT was different they made it an offshoot

Then you pull them over.

And go through the appropriate procedure. Sometimes they turn out to be a wanted criminal

You can even pull people over for no reason. And get told off .

Tbh I think the last couple of years has basically removed the chance of any more being made.

I would actually like a game where you play in an open world as a police officer in a complete authoritarian state. Where you can choose to be an abusive cop who enjoys their power or try to sabotage it from the inside. Would make sense being in an open world where you can ignore traffic laws and abuse civilians too heh. Like a GTA version of that Tyranny game I suppose.
