The "Just Cause" series is my guilty pleasure. It's not the best story, the voice acting is usually cheesy, but the world in the games eventually look beautiful and the Grapling Hook/Parachute mechanic is INSANELY FUN to the point where you can spend hours flying around blowing shit up!

I will die in this hill that Crackdown 3 was extremely fun to play, and I put like 80 hours into it, just to complete all the achievements. Was it innovative? No. Did it do anything new that the original game didn't? Nope. But in my opinion, it really didn't need to. But I would love to see a reboot of the Crackdown franchise, with a bigger emphasis on story and maybe even add character creation and customization for your Agent. Maybe a more deep hand to hand combat system to accompany the already great weapons. Those few additions would breathe a new life into the franchise.

@EbiLMunkeY All 3 were fun. The 2nd game was kinda janky feeling, though, not gonna lie. But Crackdown 3 was just as fun as the first. I think people were mad because it was way overhyped to be something bigger but ended up feeling too much like the original. But for me, that was enough. I didn't need too much more. They upped the visuals a decent amount and added some better weapons and slightly bigger variety of enemy types. That was enough for me.

@@pansnemesis Dynasty Warriors 4 and 5 are about the oldest I've played and can recommend, with 7 and 8 being the best of the more modern games. Avoid 9 because it's about as bland and boring as the series can get because of the oversized open-world it's got. If you're not as interested in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms story or already seen it then you've got the Empire games which pretty much skip it and let you create your own characters. Then for spin-offs we've got Samurai Warriors, which focuses more on Japanese stuff with Warriors Orochi being a combination of Dynasty Warriors and Samurai Warriors. Dynasty Warriors Gundam and Hyrule Warriors I have played and can recommend, Gundam more specifically if it's a franchise you enjoy and want to see characters from different Gundam shows interact. Persona 5 Strikers and Fire Emblem Warriors I've heard good things about and others I've only seen little bits of gameplay and can't really say much about.

Time shift is still one of my favorite games solely because of its time mechanics that no other game has replicated. I remember the first time playing and watching the rain stop mid air then go back into the sky when you rewound time. I was so mesmerized. Couldn’t tell you Jack about the story, but If they redid this game with modern graphics it would be amazing just as a time manipulation simulator

MK: Armaegeddon was such a huge step up in roster size, but a huge step down in depth, atmosphere and worldbuilding............... but me and my friends/family played the SHIT out of it during gatherings. Good lord was it a fun party game. It's too bad it wasn't the MK All Stars we were hoping it was going to be, but it was good enough. If Motaro was in Centaur form instead of Minotaur, the game would've been gawddamn perfect hahah

Fist of the North Star : Lost Paradise is truly great, exactly like you describe. I'm so glad I played through, I liked it even better than the Yakuza games but mainly because I was watching the old series on TV in the 80s.

While I'll say it's better than a mediocre rating, I'm putting my vote in for Vanquish. It's stupid and cheesy, but it's honestly some of the most fun third-person shooting I've experienced in a game. It's one of those yearly 'knock out in an afternoon' titles for me. Also EDF but thats already been mentioned quite a bit in other comments.

I hope Gameranx isn’t trying to diss some of the amazing games Platinum has put out as bad. The Legend of Korra wasn’t a classic by any means but the combat was the most satisfying avatar game we’ve ever gotten. Any slander of Astral Chain is just off limits, unique, fun, and of course the combat was amazing.

This proves that not every game has to be “10/10 - GOTY” There is fun to be had in a lot of games that may not be the best overall, or have amazing stories or huge open worlds - sometimes you just want to dive in and screw around and have fun. I always wanted to try out “Wanted: Dead,” looks perfect for a Steamdeck vacation afternoon.

Oh wow. Crackdown! I still remember how I got drawn to KZbin back in the day. It was a video from Crackdown 2 14 years ago someone posted on 4ch. The rest, as they say, is history. I never played any of these. My first thoughts of just dumb fun was SR3 and SR4. Aside from that popping zombies heads in RE was my go to chill experience.
