It was originally basically a shorthand for budget. A list actors, A list director, a list studio = a AAA movie. I think? All of those things cost money, so...

I don't think he was aware of that, to be clear, because even if he was it's still an idiotic response. The game doesn't show that it had that kind of budget at all.

And nobody uses it for that in the gaming industry these days anyway. It's just "AAA = Big studio." Or honestly at this point "big marketing budget."
