Amazon Lumberyard: free AAA game engine with Oculus and AWS integration
The wording is rather strange.<p>>free AAA game engine<p>Doesn't being called that require that there are AAA games developed with it? According to wikipedia,<p>"In the video game industry, AAA (pronounced "triple A") or Triple-A is a classification term used for games with the highest development budgets and levels of promotion or the highest ratings by a consensus of professional reviewers."<p>So if it's an engine for games with highest development budgets, why would they care about the engine being free? Clearly choosing a free engine is a cost-saving measure, at which point you're no longer making an AAA game by definition.
