I think it's also because people really want to be in the game business. It's not quite the same, but when I worked at a porn company most of the non-programmers and non-essential production people got paid really low wages because a) there are a lot of parties and other perks you wouldn't get at most "normal" jobs (such as being able to say you work at a porn studio), and b) most of the non-programmers and non-essential production people see no way that they'd be able to get a job elsewhere after working at a porn company. The senior programmers and top production people got paid very nicely, though.
