Depends on the games. In general though, IMO, 3 great games is better than one "phenomenal" game.

The difference between a 9.9 and a 10.0 is not epic. I wouldnt even trade two AAA games for one AAAA, never mind three.

Depends. But I'd definately take 3 AAA over 1 AAAA. Like to use N64 examples, I'd take Mario 64, Banjo Kazooie and Perfect Dark over just Zelda.

Definitely 3 AAA's or 3 AA's.

While a AAAA game is amazing and rare.... there's a chance it could be slightly overrated by the reviewer, which would only make it AAA. (Since the difference between AAAA and AAA is only 0.1) So, to sum it up, I'd rather have 3 fantastic games than 1 fantastic game.

It depends on which will last me the longest... I know Halo 2 lasted me a long time and was easily worth the purchase 10 times over, but Halo 3 was only worth one buy because I did not play the online enough...

Depends entirely on the game.

I'd take OoT over a bunch of AAA's, same goes for MGS4 too. On the other hand, I would definitely take 2 AAA's over GTAIV.

I would def take 3 AAA games since all ratings are subjective anyway. For instance there are tons of AA and AAA games that I would play before Grand Theft Auto 4. I'm not saying I don't like GTA 4, just that I personally rate plenty of AA and AAA games higher than it even though GS gave it a perfect 10.

Personally I'd rather have 3 AAA's, more games is better then one awesome game. I love MGs4 but I'd take Gears of War, Halo 3, and the other games in the 360 catalogue over it anyday because that's the only game for the PS3 I want.

Three AAAs? I'd never thought I'd see the day you're praising the PC...

I'll take those, thank you. Along with our 7 AAs so far this year.

Owning both a 360/PS3, I would take MGS4 over Gears, Halo 3, and whatever the other AAA is. PGR?

If somebody offered me Halo 3, Gears of War and Forza 2... or a copy of MGS4, i would take the three games in a heartbeat. I cant think of any reason why you'd take one game.

3 AAA, after all, you can only play a AAAA only so many times before you get bored.

I'd take anything over MGS4, not because I'm a fanboy, but because I don't like MGS.

Depends what the games are, but hypothetically if your asking me what would I take, MGS4/GTA IV or Forza 2, PDZ, and Halo 3, then I'd take MGS4/gtaIV.

It comes down to personal preference. For example, if we're talking Halo 3, PDZ, and Forza 2 I'd take MGS4 over those in a heartbeat. PDZ is ridiculously overrated and I don't like racers so basically it's Halo 3 vs. MGS4.

I'd take Super Mario Galaxy, Burnout Paradise, and Super Smash Bros. Brawl over MGS4. Of course, I'm really not a big fan of Metal Gear to begin with.

Imagine if these 3 AAAEs were once per year, same goes with the 1 AAAAE game. The more the better that would last you throughout the year.

Depends on the game. I thought the AA Mass Effect was better than either the AAAA Grand Theft Auto IV or Metal Gear Solid IV. I also thought the A John Woo Presents Stranglehold was better than the AAA Perfect Dark Zero.

I'm gonna take a wild guess, and say that 4 games (reguardless of score or console) are better than no games. :D.

Had to edit it, even I misinterpreted my own post.
