The Just Cause games are great. 1 is kind of janky, and more "GTA clone"-like than the rest, but still has fun gimmicks like Stunt Jumping across the roofs of vehicles and the ability to parasail behind any vehicle with a grappling hook. 2 is the best of the series, IMO; it's where the games really became their own unique thing. A gargantuan open world, the option to dual-wield any combination of single-handed weapons, the grapple hook becoming an innate feature with a dedicated button, the ability to hook yourself to terrain and take to the air whenever, the ability to tether any two physics objects (including enemies!)... It's a definite must-play. 3 is kind of a step back with a smaller, more boring world and lamer story, but it's still absolutely worth playing for the new gameplay features. The wingsuit is one of the most fun traversal methods in any game, and the ability to have multiple things tethered at the same time (as well as tether specific parts of a person) allows much more physics shenanigans.

I've had the classic Tomb Raider games since I was young, but the only games in the series I've really properly played are Legend (finished and beat most time trial stuff) and 2013 (kinda; got close to the end, then had my save file destroyed by a PS4-exclusive bug that's STILL UNPATCHED. Don't worry about it on PC, though, but maybe rotate your saves just in case). Legend was great fun, felt like a modernised version of the classics gameplay-wise, and told a good story. 2013, though, just felt like Uncharted with a Female -- I'm sorry, Woman Protagonist™, and Crafting™, and an Open^-ish World™, and was a boring origin story.
