Hmmmmmmmmmm. I say "beat games" myself so I'm not sure I agree with your point that it is linguistically incorrect. That being said, I also believe that language evolves. When something falls into common usage most linguists accept it as "correct."
Dictionary.com has "To defeat or subdue, as in a contest" and I think that if I am playing a game and I complete all of the objectives I've beaten it.
