Rainbow Six is also a book. I\'m not sure what came first, or if they came out simultaneously..

Book came out first.  Never heard of a book being based on a videogame :p

And now to quote Airheads:

- "The movie or the book?"

Ummm...Blaster Master and Resident Evil had books...

Just off the top of my head...
July 2002: If you had bought $1000.00 worth of Nortel stock one year ago, it would now be worth $49.00. Enron, $16.50 left. Worldcom, $5.00 left. If you had bought $1,000.00 worth of Budweiser beer one year ago, drank it all and turned in the cans for the 10 cent deposit, you would have $214.00. Based on the above, my current investment advice is to drink heavily and recycle.

Books based on games? What, you never heard of the Halo book? It was pretty well received..

There\'s also Doom, Mega Man, Sonic the Hedgehog, Super Mario Bros, and Silent Hill comic books.. among others.
