I know quite a lot about geography, and it is a subject that I enjoy studying. And when it comes to any game I play, I will eventually analyze the game's landmarks and geography - especially if it's a game that has a sole focus on the setting, such as an open world game.
This list will focus on real world and fictional game settings, primarily for open-world games. If the location is generalized to the real-world, then I will mention a particular game set in that location. There may be several locations from a particular series (e.g. Grand Theft Auto).
As of now, this list is a work in progress.

The setting of Sleeping Dogs, Hong Kong is a city known for its tourist values and nightlife scenery. It is one of the most well-designed cities in the world, and Sleeping Dogs provides a near accurate portrayal of the city when it comes to culture and architecture.
From the original Just Cause.
Featured in Just Cause 3, Medici is an island nation located in the Mediterranean sea. It is a large map with several towns, military bases and even its own capital city. Much of Medici's geography is based around Italy and southern France. I have always enjoyed any game set around this part of the world, regardless of the game's genre. But I feel that Medici is the perfect open-world map of its kind, especially for the Just Cause series. Medici feels like very cultural and significant to the game's plot compared to other Just Cause settings, and I have spent a considerable amount of time exploring the map for secrets - as well as just to blow some stuff up.
