Please refer to this IGN article for more insight.
Doug Lambardi is a brilliant man in his words
This is what the process has become:
1. Make eye catching, low end games, such as Carnival Games for Wii, to get new gamers involved.
2. They will notice how bad the game is after a while, and start to distinguish good games from bad games. Then they think, "What else can I get?"
3. As they become better at picking out good games, they will also develop skill. They may also start reffering to sites and shows such as X-Play, IGN, and GameSpot to learn more about the industry.
4. These new gamers will change from a Carnival Games gamer into a Bioshock gamer.
5. Evolve from there.
Right now we are on steps 1 and 2. Eventually we will see the next steps in action, and thus the industry will be harcore once again.
No worries guys, let the casual gamers have their crappy games...they will learn.
There have ALWAYS been terrible games and great games. These days are no different. It's just more noticeable.
