In an interview with CNBC, Yves Guillemot said the development costs of the next generation video games will increase up to $60 million per title. He arrived to such conclusion because he forecasts that "the next generation is going to be so powerful that playing a game is going to be the equivalent of playing a CGI movie today."
The chairman and CEO of Ubisoft also said he expects as much as 80 percent of Ubisoft’s future family games to utilize motion-sensor controls, but he said that core franchises won't switch to the new motion sensing technology presented by Microsoft and Sony at this year's E3.
Guillemot said that he suspects consumers may be a bit more impatient than console makers in getting a new generation of gaming systems and OnLive, the company that runs video games on a remote server and deliver them online to create the illusion that you're playing the game locally, could "shake up the timetables" of the three console makers and force them to release new systems before they want to.
