Dear Esther

There's a game just released on steam called Dear Esther.  You don't have any guns or any weapons of any kind, you just walk around an island in first person for 2 hours.  A beautiful island.  I'm going to pick this up on steam when it goes on sale, I love the exploration mechanic in games.  My absolute favourite part of Fallout 3, and less so in New Vegas, was just going out, exploring and seeing what was there.  I really hope this game Dear Esther can be modded, while the exploration looks great, I wouldn't mind some kind of combat based gameplay to be introduced, something like a last man standing game where the AI either hunts you out, or is trying to hide from you. 

Here's a video review from ign.
