Daniel X series.
Alien hunter Daniel X learns that two of the most dangerous aliens on the planet are plotting to use video games to brainwash players. He must recruit the aliens' rebellious son as an ally before it's "game over" for humans. Short chapters (for short attention spans) keep the pace of the story (with its preposterous premise) brisk.
