    What is a AAA game? A game released by a large publisher? Is that the only criteria? Then the answer is “money”.

    If a AAA game has to meet some level of quality control before it’s called AAA, why is Ubisoft and EA considered AAA?

      It really comes down to money more than anything. Quality factors in very little. More marketing, higher budgets, larger teams.

          Yeah it definitely should be higher quality with all that money, but like you said, the rot of corporatism really fucks that up.
