yeah I dunno about zelda either.

its classified as an RPG, but its definetely more of an action adventure game.

but there are people who have pretty good arguments for saying why its an RPG.

But if it does go in it will win

Zelda is not a role-playing game at all.

As much of 'RPG' as Folklore and half of the list. In fact Zelda is derivative from such games as Ultima (have been comfirmed by Miyamoto himself), which serves as inspiration for first jRPGs as well as Wizardry.

- Final Fantasy XIII

//Hey, where's Super Paper Mario? If it isn't turn-based it's not classified as 'RPG'?



+ Lost Odyssey
- Final Fantasy the Crystal Bearers



+ Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn
- Final Fantasy XIII

But it is a bit early for this List because a bunch of promising RPGs (Xenoblade, Fragile Dreams, The Last Story, Arc Rise Fantasia) will be released in the next few month.

Zelda's generally classified as an adventure game, due to the static (not dynamic) character building.  Of course, the same holds true for stuff like LandStalker, Beyond Oasis, Alundra, Rocket Slime, Okami or (on this list even) Crystal Bearers.

If Zelda's not counted, Crystal Bearers can't be either.  They're either both adventure games, or both action RPGs.
