I spent hours and hours playing THE BATTLE FOR MIDDLE EARTH (as well as the later sequel) based upon the PETER JACKSON film and then, when I had completed all the Good and Evil campaign scenarios, took to the skirmish games instead. Every now and again I will go back to it even after all this time.
I know this does not count, but one of the first games I remember playing based on something else was ZOIDS on the C64 in the 1980's, based on the best-selling wind-up toys of the time. Ah, the fond memories!
