TIME have released their list of games that they thought were worthy of being named in a top ten list. What’s on there?

Well, unsurprising for a ‘mainstream’ publication, Grand Theft Auto IV tops the list, as Lev Grossman, the writer of the article, waxes lyrical about the game’s achievements:

“It’s ironic that GTA became a football in the debate over sex and violence in video games, because where it belongs is in the debate over whether video games count as art… It’s a grade-A shoot-‘em-up that doubles as an interactive novel and triples as a sly critique of American consumer culture.”

Ok, thanks Lev, but where’s Fallout 3 and Metal Gear Solid 4 on the list? Instead, space is made for Star Wars: The Force Unleashed and Fieldrunners (an iPhone game). You can check out Time’s full top ten list over here, and nod in agreement or scoff in dismay as you please.
