Alright, I'll try to clarify this as much as I can. You're right about the three primary canons (film, novel, and Trespasser). However, the reason why the other video games don't have their own canon is because most of them are based around the same concept--All arcade games are shooters that focus around film locations, with little plot details around the universe itself, All the SEGA games and older Playstation games focus around their respective films, etc. Trespasser is a special case primarily because it was developed as a movie tie-in. The game has an original story, voice-overs detailing events and history pertaining to the game's universe. So much so, that the game's timeline actually has more detail than most of the film's timeline. The other games just don't have that amount of scripting and background to make their own canon
