Letโs be honest: movies and TV have long had a monopoly on the grand, self-important list. From AFIโs โTop 100โ to Rolling Stoneโs exhaustive episode rankings, every frame worth ranking has been ranked and then re-ranked. Video games have their best-of genre lists, but it’s not quite the same as swinging for the fences and cementing history. Which is why Polygon decided it was time โ overdue! โ to build something of our own.

It’s great to see the Legend of Zelda getting recognition for its iconic quotes! Video games definitely deserve a spot in the conversation about memorable lines, and this is an interesting take on the topic. Looking forward to more discussions around gaming’s impact on storytelling!
