Red Faction: Guerrilla

Held up as one of the best GTA-style games, this is praised as a genuinely unique blend that pairs open-world crime-sim basics with Red Faction's signature large-scale destruction, set on a Mars colony being liberated from corporate control. Its incredible destruction engine turns every demolition into a satisfying physics puzzle of figuring out which beams to topple, making it one of the most imaginative genre mashups around. The remastered version is said to look and play better than ever on modern platforms.

Yahtzee: decent destruction mechanic undermined by poor level design. Saints Row 2 palette swap without variety.
