Special Edition Podcast: The Great Zelda Debate
UPDATE (September 7, 2011): Earlier this year, GI's most diehard Zelda fanatics got together to debate which game in the series was best (amongst other issues) on the Game Informer Show. We're republishing that special episode today to help prep you for the month of Zelda 25th anniversary coverage that will be hitting alongside our Skyward Sword cover this month. Enjoy and share your feelings on which Zelda is the best in the series in the comments!
For regular podcast listeners, don't worry -- we'll be back tomorrow with our regularly-scheduled edition of the Game Informer Show.
ORIGINAL STORY (April 7, 2011): We decided to take a week off of our regular podcast to present to you our Great Zelda Debate. The idea for this issue started when some GI editors were arguing about what the greatest Zelda game of all time was on Twitter (you know, instead of walking over 10 feet and talking to each other). Host Matt Helgeson dragged the office's biggest Zelda fans (Tim Turi, Phil Kollar, Andy Reiner, Dan Ryckert, and Matt Bertz) into the studio for a spirited conversation about the best and worst Zelda games, how the series has evolved (or failed to evolve) over the years, and some of the significant innovations past Zelda titles brought to our favorite hobby.

We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
