A subtrope of Twice-Told Tale and a subgenre of Fan Webcomics: these comics play out the plot of their chosen games, from start to finish. Some comics hold closer to the original storyline than others. Liberties may be taken - via Alternate Character Interpretation, inclusion of original characters, and embellishment (if not outright Retconning) of plot points - the essential plot and major elements remain the same.
Such comics often take the form of an Affectionate Parody. Please note that webcomics simply using characters and features from a video game universe in a fan-made story do not count.

Nuzlocke Comics takes a lot of liberties, but the result is awesome.

8-Bit Theater (possibly the Trope Codifier) loosely told the story of the original Final Fantasy.
Which was supposed to be a bunch of one-off comics of several 8-bit games, a la VG Cats or Awkward Zombie, but ended up as an Final Fantasy 1 parody in the end.

Black Adventures, for Pokémon Black and White, may not have started out this way, but it seems to be doing so now.
XY Adventures, the sequel loosely based on Pokémon X and Y, with a few twists compared to its predecessor.

The Last Days of Foxhound starts out telling the immediate backstory of Metal Gear Solid from the villains' perspective, but sprawls out into the rest of the series, and lampshades almost all the significant plot and gameplay elements of the games along the way. The events of Metal Gear Solid are shown in a deliberately anticlimactic single strip.

Bob and George follows the story of the 8-bit Mega Man (Classic) games... mostly.
Also of note, the comic was supposed to be about something completely different, had the Mega Man filler had not been so popular and the writer's drawing skills not be so poor.
Many of its subcomics also use this trope, including as MS Paint Masterpieces, which also follows the plot of the 8-bit Mega Man games. So far only the first games are completed.

"Of the movies" rather than "of the games", but DM of the Rings for The Lord of the Rings and Darths & Droids for Star Wars (they started with the prequels and have now reached the original trilogy).
Those have also become their own trope, the Campaign Comic.
Also, for the latter, it's implied they also played Tabletop versions of the Dark Forces Saga, AKA the Force Unleashed games.

The VG Cats spinoff Super Effective for Pokémon Red and Blue — insofar as the original Pokemon games had a story and insofar as it managed to inch into it.
Pokémon-X does the same for Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire, with Schedule Slip applying there as well.

There are at least three different Webcomics following the plot of The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker, at least two of which age-up Link and Tetra to aproximately the age of their Twilight Princess counterparts, in order to circumvent the Lighter and Softer problem. Here's one of them.

ShiftyLook was an official version of this trope; most comics featured were based off old obscure Namco games, and almost all of them had a humorous tilt.

Planet Zebeth does not actually cover the events of Metroid, but it does have an arc early on which goes through the plot of Metroid II: Return of Samus.
