Hmmm.

Some suggestions, though i might be making it too complex:

- Find a way to differentiate between small-scale and AAA releases
- Differentiate digital only releases.

- Investigate the use of bands. For example, using a flat average of all games of a certain type will include a few small and badly performing games, that will skew the otherwise very appealing nature of better games.

Finally, you're missing Fable Legends, which is pegged for a 2015 release, and on your criteria will come with a ranking of about 84-85.

I think the simplest way of going about it is to just separate games into retail and digital-only groups. There will occasionally be an obvious exclusion (like an indie retail collection or a limited indie retail run), but it works most of the time and involves little work. It also avoids definition debates, since while 'AAA' is used in a dozens different contexts by different people and companies, 'retail' is pretty firm :p

Thee simplest way? I think is the only way. This should really be done. 

But on the first thread someone pointed out a list war website that already included ranks, retaail, ports and all that. That seemed to be more than perfect and we should just use that.
