@FilaNot at all.  I recognise the validity of other measures of "AAA" for certain purposes.  But in broad terms there can be no more easily acceptable definition than the aggregate opinion of the wider gaming press as too what constitutes the best of the best.

I personally would consider Fable 2 a AAA game for a variety of reasons, but I cannot reasonably argue that the wider gaming press agrees, much as they all believe it is a highly competant game. 

 I disagree, I think it's very flawed to just look at metacritic and say this game is AAA and that game is not AAA, as you said Fable II is a AAA game, I haven't played it yet but heard good things about it, likewise Uncharted and Dead Space are also AAA games, some will even argue that ToV is a AAA game (haven't played that one yet).

 Just looking at aggregate score and deciding whether a game is AAA or not is a flawed and broken logic. Really who has heard of most of those sites and reviewers that are used to aggregate the score?

I didn't say it was perfect.  You implied that I have an obsession with them and view them as an all-encompassing measure of quality.  This is a far more flawed opinion than mine.

I simply believe that for general comparison reasons it is the best we have got.
