In UK game-development degrees not up to snuff, claims industry

A mate of mine working for a reputable games developer told me that as soon as they see they have a 'games' degree they bin the cv. I asked why, and the most important reason is their portfolio of games, each one shows the same 3 or so games that they have been told to make, which are near identical and so show no innovation, talent etc. They far prefer intelligent people, who have by their own interest fired out a load of code to produce some ace games.
