The games are completely off. Liek Ordos is one of the major houses, but they don't appear in the books. Or on Dune for that matter. The ORdos however exist in the Dune Encyclopedia where there is a small mention of them somewhere.
BTW According to the books the colors of the atreides are green/black. I think they changed it because red is mostly related to evel, blue to nobility, and green to sneakiness (how'd ya call it?)

Agreed, Idaho. In the game, the Atreides are blue for nobility, the Harkonnen red for evil, and the Ordos greenish for their sneaky and insidious nature.

Just my take.

Noticed that in the books, when the Atreides first see a harvester, the harvester is described grey with blue. They might have taken the colors of the Atreides from that.

The Atreides flag is green and black, but I do recall that the Atreides uniform is mostly red. The Harkonnens are generally blue. The color of the Atreides uniform can be regarded as insignificant - however, green and black Atreides units and blue Harkonnen units in the game might have been nice and given the thing a little more depth.
And why introduce the Ordos when they are so similar in concept to the Tleilaxu?

perhaps because the tleilaxu are no house but a sect?
