The Halo motion comics are based on comics based on a novel of short stories based on the background history of the world in the video game "Halo: Combat Evolved". Additionally, the movie "Forward Unto Dawn" (which is now on Netflix) is a live action film based on the backstory to a game which was not out at the time of the film's original release. This use of transmedia is like making movie video games, but the other way around, and, in my opinion, far more successful. It is often easier to add story to game mechanics than game mechanics to a story. Agency is a fickle beast.

The walking dead is a great example of that too.
