Founded in 1998 by former Activision developers, Pandemic Studios started their run creating great Star Wars games such as Clone Wars, Battlefront 1 and Battlefront 2. They moved on to GTA-style open worlds such as Destroy All Humans, Mercenaries Playground of Destruction and The Saboteur. After being acquired by Electronic Arts alongside Bioware, they would develop Lord of the Rings Conquest and Mercenaries 2: World in Flames before being closed by EA.
