You're Welcome -
One point I really don't see mentioned here is that just because a game is done without voice acting or without fancy a 3d engine doesn't mean that the game can't be AAA. To me, AAA game status is earned by games that suck you in, give you a great gaming experience and leaves you feeling satisfied. Who cares if the dialog is just written paragraphs and the camera is zoomed out and fixed? To me in's kinda like movie awards. Inception was a great AAA Blockbuster that cost $160 Million to make. It even took Academy Awards for Best Cinematography, Best Sound Editing, Best Sound Mixing, and Best Visual Effects. Still it was The King's Speech that same year that won the Academy Awards for Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor, and Best Original Screenplay. The film also received 12 Oscar nominations, more than any other film in that year. What was the budget for The King's Speech? $15 million. So I guess my point is that just because your budget is small it doesn't mean you can't make an amazing product. This may sound kinda childish but it brings to mind the saying "It's doesn't matter what you have, it's all in how you use it.". -P
