In the ned this ignite the discussion... I don't think that AAA games are only high bugedt games, |
I respect your thinking, but, in truth, what you think or don't think, or what I think or don't think, or what some forum users think or don't think, doesn't matter in the game industry...
Semantic and Semeiotic adopted in a context aren't modified by what we think, and no, sadly no low budget game has ever become AAA by... "support of the people"... (we wish!) :)
AAA game, a lingo in the video game industry for games developed for major platforms with enormous marketing budgets. [source: wikipedia, if you trust it]

PLease, remember that, while we can have the impression that any "lingo" is a sort of undefined language/term whose meanings can still be interpreted according to personal tastes, in the videogame marketing industry this is no longer the case. It's an industry sector that is getting old and where even this type of unofficial jargoon used by developers, managers and journalists is consolidated and unambiguous.
I'm writing this for your sake, and just for clarity.
I have no problem if anyone wants to use "AAA game" to designate a game that turned out to be cool... Just be warned that your choice of term is not correct, ok?...
