Kinect And Move Development Is Cheaper: Will Game Quality Decline?

Gary A Swaby of TheKoalition.com writes: This article is based on the words of THQ President Brian Farrell at an investor conference.

Judging by the launch titles they seem to be focused more on fun and less on graphics.. You do remember fun right??

I think as we get to the next wave of games I think the quality will come but you will never get rid of the shovelware.

But at least with move it can be easily incorporated into existing games e.g. nba2k11, tiger woods, heavy rain, etc etc. Kinect makes use of the xbox cpu so sacrifices will have to be made/

That's really cool. It's crazy something like that is possible with gaming controllers 1000's of miles away.
