Awesome list, as somebody that has put maybe thousands of hours into this genre I think all the best picks are here, and nice to see Warhammer 40K Inquisitor as that one is super underrated. The only ones "missing" imo are the ones developed by Soldak Entertainment, like Zombasite or Din's Legacy. Low budget but fun and with some interesting mechanics for the genre. Since we are including edge cases or hybrid examples, I would honorably mention Ys Origin and the OG version of Hellgate: London (RIP), too.
Been playing this a lot again recently due to the DLC release. Such a good game. Like an unholy mix of Skyrim/Just Cause/Shadow of Mordor spawned from the Red Ring Depths of Xbox 360 action.
It's interesting that at the time this was pretty negatively compared to that PS2 game War of the Monsters, but now Godzilla is very fondly remembered and WotM is barely talked about. To be fair I actually think Godzilla is more fun or at least easier to pick up and play, despite the lower framerate(moot point in the remastered version anyway).
