Games that really reward exploration and don't just feel like a box ticking exercise. Some that come to mind in recent years:

Super Metroid when you take that one elevator up from where you get the Power Bombs in Brinstar and you return to your ship was definitely an awesome moment! That and Pokemon RBY when you take Diglett's Cave and end up back on route 2 was also neat. --- "It's time for Risky's Revenge, so let's attack aggressively!"-Risky Boots "Two men enter, one man leaves"-Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome ...

Oblivion, at least for the first 60 hours or so. After that, you've probably at least explored most of the map and have a good understanding of the biomes and dungeon types as well as what to generally expect in each tiny village you come across along the way. Somehow Skyrim felt far more empty in comparison because you wouldn't find as many random houses just a little ways off from the road but far enough in you couldn't spot it from the road itself. --- tfw no big tiddy goth vampire gf who lactates blood - viewmaster_pi ...

Oblivion. Stepping out of the sewers and seeing the mountains in the distance. Thinking "I can really walk over there?? This world is huge!" Zelda games of course are also the first that come to mind. --- http://i.imgur.com/tqMGw.png http://i.imgur.com/IHbuM.jpg ... Copied to Clipboard!

I'll echo WoW, though part of that was growing up on WC2 and finally seeing Hillbrad hills etc in person Going further back, the Sierra game Hero Quest/Quest for Glory - while other Sierra titles had exploration, this was the first where you could wander around finding things and the plot progressed at your own pace ...

Shotgunnova posted... Skies of ArcadiaThis. You're just sailing around, and BOOM, you've discovered a hidden temple, a cool rainbow colored monkey, or a weird levitating mineral or some shit. It helped that the game seemed absolutely huge, and most of the dungeon maps were also great, and the story was constantly thrusting you into lost continents and junk.
