VC and IV are the ones I'm most familiar with but I haven't played either in years. What I remember is that missions were pretty linear and you were expected to do them one way, but sometimes you'd have just enough freedom so you could do one or two steps differently.

Mercenaries on ps2 is one game i know of where the missions were usually "go blow this thing up" and the game let you choose how to accomplish that. The sequel was pretty bad because they took away that freedom in most missions. I think sometimes these games get so complicated that devs refuse to accept randomness and make everything scripted.

Rockstar are definitely pretty high on themselves and often expect you to do everything the "right" way in their games and punish you for doing anything else.
