I have some of those:
Def Jam: Fight for NY. I bought it when I was a hip-hop/rap loving kid (don't judge me) and I enjoyed it. I replayed it later when I became more of a rock fan and it is still surprisingly good. Nice gameplay, neat character creation and style system, also really not bad story for a FG.
Pacific Rim videogame (PS3 and Xbox 360 one). For a 10$ movie tie-in game it is pretty damn good. Plus, I can play as Cherno Alpha!
Also, honorable mention to Dragon Age II. I played DA:O and I thought that it was fine. NOT good, just fine. Then the whole "DAII SUX LOL!" story started and I, willing to understand what is the big deal is, played it myself. I thought (and still think) that it's a good game. Yes, locations are repetative, you can't equip your allies with gear and mages are a bit imbalanced (but DAO had the same problem, so...) but it's still good. Story where I am not a chosen one who has to *inhale deeply* SAVE THE WORLD, better combat, and good non-stereotypical characters (most of them, at least). Yeah, I enjoyed it.
