The gamers have spoken! The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword won Game of the Year on X-Play's Video Game Deathmatch 2011. Of course they picked Skyrim just like SpikeTV, but the fans are the ones who truly know the worth of a good game. Let that be a lesson to the "experts" at X-Play, which gave the game a 4 out of 5.
Also I'd like to repost that the Zelda franchise was the first entered into SpikeTV's Video Game Hall of Fame. Both awards are fitting for the 25th Anniversary of Zelda.
