The Crysis 2 novel by Peter Watts was pretty decent since it takes a couple of liberties with the plot and gives the main character an actual personality. It also taught me rape between flies is A Thing.

The Metal Gear Solid 1 and 2 novels are glorified script dumps where the writer just copied and pasted the games'. The second one is the worst at this, while the first one has a brief added prologue and a handful of lines to tie it to MGS4 and also takes some liberties with Snake's character by making him say awful one-liners in a couple of parts while killing guards. There's one of MGS4 (with an afterword by Kojima) written by the late Project Itoh and from what little I read it seems fine even if the Japanese to English translation is awkward at times.
