AAA literally just refers to games published by big publishers that are large scale and have huge budgets.

I'm aware, though these days it's more like published by heavily "Yeah I've played games, I was the best at pong in elementary school" shareholder influenced publishers and devs that make totally out of touch decisions and then lay off all the staff that were responsible for anything in the game considered good right after the game gets bad press.
