I seem to remember MS claiming they were opening the “first AAAA dev studio” (The Initiative). Since then, the studio has been radio silent, lost a bunch of talent, and needed help from Crystal Dynamics to work on their first game (Perfect Dark reboot).
It’s just a marketing term. Just like AAA is a marketing term meaning we spent more money advertising this product than we spent on development.
Ah, i guess the “A” in “AAA” stands for Advertisement.
Monopoly Go is the only real AAAA
Except that there was no advertising for concord lol.
True dat.
The A is for “Actually this game is $90 now instead of $60.”
Have any companies besides ubisoft used the term yet?
