Time Magazine officially released their top 10 video games of 2008. While it's surprising to not see any exclusive Nintendo Wii titles, it's not surprising to see PlayStation 3 related to half of the list.

We may not agree with Grand Theft Auto IV being the top ranked game, though it is arguably deserving. However, we're completely outraged by the fact that Metal Gear Solid 4 isn't even considered one of the top ten titles overall.

1. Grand Theft Auto IV (360, PS3, PC)
2. Braid (360)
3. LittleBigPlanet (PS3)
4. Rock Band 2 (360, PS3)
5. Gears of War 2 (360)
6. Dead Space (360, PS3, PC)
7. Star Wars: The Force Unleashed (Wii, 360, PS3, DS, PSP)
8. Hunted Forever (free Flash)
9. Fieldrunners (iPhone)
10. Spore (PC)

We're beside ourselves in confusion with this list. Star Wars: The Force Unleashed? Seriously? Over a top-tier title like Metal Gear Solid 4?

We're going to turn to our readers on this one. Do you think this does a great injustice to Kojima's masterpiece or is the list justified?
