8 BEST Movie Tie-In Video Games EVER

8. Die Hard Trilogy

Rather than develop a game based on just the original Die Hard, Probe Entertainment instead decided to cram three games based on the first three movies into a single retail release.

The fantastically feature-rich Die Hard Trilogy adapts the first movie into a third-person shooter set inside Nakatomi Plaza, while Die Hard 2 is reimagined as an on-rails shooter with light gun support, and Die Hard with a Vengeance is a gloriously deranged, gory driving game set across the streets of New York City.

Fox could've absolutely sold these games as separate releases, but in an uncommonly pro-consumer move, delivered them all for one RRP. 

The result is a fantastically diverse compendium that nails the vibe of the Die Hard movies, from the bombastic, bloody action to the wise-cracking one-liners and everything else in-between. 

It feels like precisely the sort of weird-yet-amazing movie game we just wouldn't get nowadays.

Die Hard Trilogy is certainly beloved by many who played it on release, though its below-the-radar rep doesn't cohere with just how damn fun it actually is.
