> by your reasoning there could be only 1 AAA game a year!

in today's day and age, there is arguably 4-5 games per year that can win GOTY, so those games are the true AAA titles. An AAA game should have no visible flaws (only one or two minor ones). Personally, a game with average score of over 9 at least.

Frankly, R&C isn't as good. It's a great PS3 title, just not AAA.

Ok, so ratchet and clank has an average rating of 89 on metacritic and since its not 90 its not AAA?

AAA generally means a big game for a system that is a great game. R&C got the same score as Gears of War  from Ign (9.4), and almost anyone considers Gears AAA.  

I also disagree that only GOTY contenders are AAA. Uncharted wasn't in the running for overall game of the year, but many considered it to be AAA and it won many ps3 game of the year awards.  

AA is a game that scores in the 80s generally, and i would consider a game like unreal tournament to be that.

Insomniacs games are at the least AA and a half, and most people consider them AAA
