Time for a confession: I lied to the voters. I said I was going to list the best Zelda games of all time based on just their votes for that one small category. However, my plan all along was to list the games based off of their combined point total in every other category. Before you get upset, I checked the results of a plain "Best Zelda Ever" vote, and they were fairly similar to the following Top 10. This just removes the troublesome ties and the like from the equation. So, without further ado, the Top 10 Zelda games of All Time, as chosen by VGChartz!
