Sachys: Can anyone name any games currently available that cover both a dystopian setting and a noir style / feel?
Aside perhaps from Beneath a Steel Sky and perhaps Culpa Innata I'm hard pressed to think of any - though I can think of some that cover each seperately.
Doesn't matter too much what genre of play style they are... it's just bugging the hell out of me!

Oh, and links to a store selling them (if you can) would be great, cheers!
Gemini Rue is mostly dystopic and feels mostly noir. Primordia is mostly dystopic with a very slight dash of noir :)

Sachys: See I considered both of those, but I'm not entirely convinced they're dystopian - Primordia maybe, but I got stuck on Gemini Rue, and have not returned to it (I refuse the walkthrough route!!! heheh).
I'll add them to the OP though...
How about BloodNet? Dystopian and you're a man who has to fight the vampire within him?

Sachys: You know I still haven't even looked at that... YET!
Also just realised Deus Ex sorta qualifies - whilst not strictly noir, its definately got tht influence (the whole deadpan delivery of JCs lines even).

Might add for everyone else out there this IS for an upcoming giveaway - as well as my general interest / that of others!
What about Anachronox?

I recall it being pretty dystopian and you play a down-on-your-luck PI :)
