The Double-A Team: Mercenaries' Playground of Destruction was a lesson in open-world chaos
When I was a teenager and getting into Star Wars, I didn't care whether Han shot first or not in the cantina.
You see, I knew better. I'd played Mercenaries: Playground of Destruction. I knew he'd use a bunker buster bomb to turn the cantina to a pile of rubble and dust instead.
Pandemic's 2005 open-world explode-'em-up let you create capital-C Chaos as Han Solo. This in itself is a mark of a different time. Han was no microtransaction. Just a simple cheat code and you could run around North Korea as the space scoundrel (or a whipless Indiana Jones).
