if you think a few percentage points (90 or 91 vs 89 or 88) or in this case a small fraction of a percentage point either way determines if a game is "AAA" or not you are clueless. A couple percentage points one way or the other isn't really significant unless you want to count so-called "AAA" in your sig for some reason.

Incorrect. 90%+ = AAA. not 89.9%+. That's the way it is.


Sorry to say, but if you think a few reviewers... who are sometimes PAID to give higher ratings determines whether or not you will buy a game... I feel very very sorry for you.

 

Ratchet and Clank IS AAA.

Uncharted is AAA.

The GAMERS decided that and THAT is what matters, not some stupid site that people think makes up their minds for them.

 

One of my favorite games of all time is SaGa Frontier on the PS1. You know what it was rated? In the 70's I believe. Does this mean now that it is junk? DEAD WRONG!!! Halo 3 got a high score on Gamerankings... does that make it better than all those that scored lower than it? I really hope you do not believe that Halo 3 is the BEST FPS ever...

You need to make decisions for yourself, if not, then unfortunately you are but a sheep.

You wanna know what AAA really is? Ask the gamers, not the PAID reviewers.

Incorrect.

Ratchet and Clank = "opinion AAA" game.

Uncharted = "opinion AAA" game.

Too many flaws prevent them from becoming "universal AAA" games. To you, they are AAA games. That is an opinion. However, the average of the world sees them as "NOT" AAA games.

My opinion differs from many reviews. I still respect the reviews, and use it to determine what games I should buy, because I don't want to blindly buy a game for $80 that got low reviews, and find out that my opinion does not differ from the reviews. If all games were free, then yes, I would only follow my reviews. All games are not free. Reviews are free. Make the connection.

You miss my point on every level. Your opinions can differ from the universally ranked score, but do not try to force your opinion as the universally ranked score. Accept that Halo 3 is universally seen to be greater than many other first person shooters, but let your opinion be different. Hate it, but know that the world does not agree with you. Read the reviews, agree with what you think is right, and disagree with what you think is wrong.

I play games that got all scores. My opinions differ from the reviews. I accept the reviews. Done. That's it. Man, oh, man. Trying to set standard viewpoints is like trying to paint the exact same picture a hundred times. It cannot be done.
