DYKG Challenges Metacritic’s Zelda Score, Threatening Top-Rated Status

TL;DR Summary
Did You Know Gaming argues Metacritic’s near‑perfect 99 for The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time is flawed, noting omissions of certain pre‑Metacritic outlets and the inclusion of non-numeric praise. Their recalculation would drop the score to 98, potentially tying Ocarina with GTA IV, Super Mario Galaxy 2, and Soulcalibur, highlighting that Metacritic is influential but not a definitive measure of a game's value.
