BIK files are the video files created using Bink, as part of RAD Video Tools. The startup video that plays on all Valve games (since the 
Source 2007 update) is a .bik file. They are also used in the menu backgrounds and the elevator screens in 
Portal 2.
In all games using the 
Titanfall branch, the engine has been upgraded to use Bink 2, which uses the .bk2 file format instead.
In the newer version of 
CS:GO engine branch (which uses Panorama), all 
Source 2 games, as well as 
Strata Source, it is replaced by WEBM.
