Definitely Gears. Great fun co-op games. Mechanically refined. Always had awesome multiplayer modes, and really pioneered the now popular Horde mode.

As an aside, I'll note that a lot of the titles you've listed here, I don't really consider to be third person shooters. Sure enough, they're third person games, and you do various amounts of shooting in them, but calling them shooters is slightly disingenuous. At least to me. A shooter, in my mind, is a game where the core experience really revolves around said shooting. Games like Mass Effect, Tomb Raider, etc. aren't actually built around the idea of running around and having gunfights. They're built around adventuring, platforming, solving puzzles, exploring your environment, role playing, and so on and so forth. The shooting is just kind of there, and all we really ask is for it to be decent enough to not undermine the experience.
