If you’re including games based on movie properties and not the movies themselves, it’s KOTOR and Chronicles of Riddick for me.

Mad Max is decent.

Toy Story 2

Peter Jackson's King Kong the official game of the movie. The only thing I can complain about is the name.

The Mummy Demastered

The 2009 Ghostbusters game was pretty good. They got the original cast back to voice their characters and the script took ideas they had for Ghostbusters 3.

The Owls of Ga'hoole. I bought it as a goof, turns out it has the best aerial melee combat I've ever seen in a game, and it is a totally separate story from the movie.

The Ghostbusters game, the one with the rookie that is. Many including myself consider it the official Ghostbusters 3

The Lord Of The Rings, The Return Of The King and Alien Isolation

Mummy Returns is probably the best game made of a BAD movie.

GoldenEye is the benchmark in this regard, I know it's aged poorly but the impact it had can't be understated

Someone already said Chronicles of Riddick, but I gotta cosign, best movie videogame ever.

Just a great game. The license is almost incidental...its a great game first, that just happens to be a movie tie in.

The Mumy Demastered is very good.

Spiderman 2 on GameCube really felt incredible. Plenty of awesome techniques you could get.

LotR: the 2 towers and return of the king are pretty great

Gollum

What about the Witcher series?

Update: Nvm, it's the opposite

There have been a few actually

Chronicles of Riddick

Many...many Star Wars games pre-disney KOTOR specifically

Lord of the Rings Two Towers and return of the king (games begging for a remaster at this point)

Alien Isolation

Goldeneye

The Warriors

Jwe 2

Goldeneye 007 was the turning point, I'll venture. Not only was it good, it was marked for greatness - although looking back, it more because of Rare's talent and that amazing multiplayer combined with the N64's in-built four player capabilities. It was the right game, made by the right developers, for the right system, at the right time.

After that, take your pick. Chronicles of Riddick, Alien Isolation, the various Star Wars games like Rogue Squadron... there was that King Kong game Peter Jackson was involved in too.

The Lego games follow the media they're based on very closely

the Peter Jackson King Kong game was shockingly good

Well it has to be Spider-Man 2 overall, nothing else comes close.

My own personal favourite though, is actually Shrek 2 on PS2, it was a really fun game.

I liked enter the matrix as a kid

Just before my time but surely it's Goldeneye, right?

Goldeneye is the only right answer

Mad Max ?

The Grinch on Game Boy Color slaps

Aladin on SNES

Alien Isolation, Lord of The Rings, The Warriors, Watchmen, Spider-Man 2, Mad Max.

I used to think The Warriors, lol. Probably Mad Max.

Shrek 2

Die Hard Arcade, though it doesn't follow the movie at all

The Warriors

I loved Madagascar 2 on the Wii

The Spongebob Movie game on Gamecube was great

Ratchet and Clank the game based on the movie that was based on the game

Peter Jackson's King Kong.

GTA 4, RDR 2

Wolverine was pretty good

Gollum ofc
