The article does need some reliable independent sources in order to stay; this Ars Technica source can provide a start on that. –MuZemike 07:14, 20 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Merge[edit]

It seems that "AAA Indie" is only being mentioned in connection with Zero Point and Interstellar Marines. I cannot find reliable sources that talk about any other game with this method using this term. Wikipedia is not for neologisms and I don't think this topic is yet notable for a separate article. Until press covers this term or its use by some other game, I don't think a separate article is warranted. —  HELLKNOWZ  ▎TALK 13:13, 1 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

If it should get merged Indie game development or Indie game would be the better choice. The AAA is just a graphic/performance/quality rating, that would apply to Minecraft in the last two cases as well. 84.155.160.145 (talk) 16:31, 23 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
The problem is that there are no sources supporting this term except as used in connection with Zero Point and Interstellar Marines. So it's not really suitable for indie game or indie game development, otherwise we would be including a number of terminology coined by some game developer but which never got traction in the industry. For example, there is no official or reliable source that attributes Minecraft to AAA Indie except the inventors of the term themselves, which is then a case of promoting neologisms. —  HELLKNOWZ  ▎TALK 17:46, 23 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
