[ReveredPartisan]

• LoZ-- 9.6/10
• AoL-- 8.5/10
• ALttP-- 9.9/10
• LA-- 9.0/10
• OoT-- 10/10
• MM-- 10/10

(No surprise, I know, but
the N64 games, IMO, are the most "perfect" Zelda games)

• OoX-- Haven't played enough of these ones to really say.
• FS-- 7.0/10 (Fun, but inaccessibility drags it down)
• tWW-- 9.4/10
• FSA-- Haven't played this one.
• MC-- 8.8/10
• TP-- 9.6/10
• PH-- 8.5/10
• ST-- 9.0/10
• SS-- 8.5 and 9.5/10... I feel like the chore-filled padding drags it down, but doesn't really make the brilliant parts any less brilliant.
• ALBW--9.2/10
