Apparently you'd like to use a fitting background color for the top row for each game. Instead of hard coding it for each game, like #403305 that you used for hl2, you can - if it fits to your plans - make use of {{tlc|hl2|col}} for that matter, or more precisely: {{tlc|{{param|game}}|col}}. Using this, the background color adapts to the {{param|game}}. Using a second half transparent black background color, you can darken the game's color. This should work out as long as the game color is not too dark. :)

In addition, this would mean that you don't need to #switch for the game right at the beginning of the template (in which case you could also just make a template for each game's chapters), instead after the table's top row. That should decrease redundance at least a bit.<br>
