This conversation on the AAA seems to have derailed this thread. I only think King is the person who is saying that a Spin off game Forza Horizon is a AAA game. Who else believe spin off games are considered by gamers, publishers and media as AAA. If we go by budget which is general used to describe a AAA game because of home much resources a publishers put into the game, I am sure its nowhere close to Forza 4.
I am sure even Bungie would not consider remade Halo combat evolved a AAA game just because it has the Halo tag or even Halo ODST since it was a direct spin off with a much smaller team and budget.
Anyway, I believe everyone can agree to disagree with king and leave it at that.
