Optimization · Practiced Mastery
A sprawling open-world crime epic with RPG-style character stats across a whole state.
Resident Evil Code: Veronica X
Optimization · Pure Optimization
Survival horror testing inventory routing and ammo economy through a fixed mansion of scripts.

Resident Evil Code: Veronica X
Zombies and bosses follow fixed scripted behaviour

Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas
Territory wars and traffic add light randomness
Resident Evil Code: Veronica X
Item placements are scripted-but-unknown on first runs

Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas
Stats, gym, weapon skill, and routes reward systematic play
Resident Evil Code: Veronica X
Ammo economy, item routing and key puzzles drive everything
A matching score does not mean a matching test. Two games can both sit at 10 on execution and demand completely different things of you - which is why the reasoning above matters more than the number beside it.
