Back in 2000s there was still an entire industry dedicated to snatching licenses and selling shovelware based on them, so I don't know how true this is. It could just be a case of history only remembering the winners.
If you compare it to now, we either get no movie tie-ins at all or at most some DLC cosmetics to celebrate it. The fact that there were winners at all kinda makes it the golden age by default.
