Probably not part I of a series
Well, at least Time does.
Despite the continued upswing in gaming's mainstream popularity, reading through a non-gaming magazine's attempts to discern trends in the medium always induces something between a smirk and a wince*. Reserve the top spot for whichever game the publisher's kids still can't stop talking about, throw six darts at a dartboard filled with G4's top ad buys, drop a flash game and an Xbox Live download (and an iPhone app, if you're feeling especially trendy this year) in there, and you're done.
Their Top 10 Worst Video Game Movies list isn't much better. Hey Time, let me give you a hint: until Fox and co. greenlight my Max Payne reboot, I'll go with ALL OF THEM.

* Unless you're reading Metro Pulse, of course. Shut up.
