Much like "best-selling book", except without being plastered over every "next coming of Tolkien" that gets churned out on a two-week cycle, it is a matter of observable popularity and quality.What is an AAA game? Who decides which is or isn't one? When a new game comes out, where does the distinction arrive into which designation the game is felled into?
Or in short; *Halo 1 most likely qualifies as an AAA game. **Evochron 1 most likely does not. ***Battlecruiser 3000AD sits somewhere in the middle.
* You will still find people raving over it, and how "everything past Halo 3 or maybe half-way through 4 didn't happen!"
** It was a fairly good space shooter/sim, for something made by one person, and using fairly good programmer graphics.
*** It was quite an amazing game for a new, up-coming company. It was made by one person. It could have used the polish of a team.
There WAS something hiding in the darker recesses, but we sent in some newbie adventurers after it to hunt it down. Most of them came back. Some of them still get the shakes when someone asks for a cold brewski...

What is an AAA game? Who decides which is or isn't one? When a new game comes out, where does the distinction arrive into which designation the game is felled into?
An AAA game (usually pronounced "triple A game") is an informal classification used for video games produced and distributed by a mid-sized or major publisher, typically having higher development and marketing budgets. AAA game development is associated with high economic risk, with high levels of sales required to obtain profitability.
In the mid 2010s the term AAA+ began to be used, describing AAA type games that generated additional revenue over time in a similar fashion to MMOs by using software as a service (SaaS) methods, such as season passes or expansion packs.
The term is analogous to the film industry term "blockbuster".

'tis once more around that time of year.
p = X out of Y, where 0 < X <= Y
Y = 1, being an analogue of the average universe in a non-finite multiverse.
Z = Y / N, where N = 1 / p
M = ∞, or the number of universes in the multiverse
p = ∞ where Y * M
QED: Santa Clause is real.
