Memes, "legendary statuses," and YouTube "video gaming" personalities: These are the reasons that the FMV games have been remade. When you combine famous YouTubers making videos about these infamous games and the "GIF's" that circulate as well as the ability to create HD transfers from the original films to create HD editions with much cleaner video than the originals, this is what happens.
They remade the movies so they ported the games as cash-ins. However, they are well done cash-ins, as they have not just HD graphics, but multiple versions of the games across various consoles and handhelds, playable prototypes, gameplay rewind and autoplay, a jump-to-any-section feature, video filters, music sound tests, and making-of sketch and picture scans.
