Well said Ben. Of course if you try to assemble a team things will get expensive quickly, that's the same as any startup really. Where game development really shines is when, as you said, you get just a couple chaps together working to make something really fun, and not caring too much of the money (up-front.) All that said, game development and startups are from two different worlds, and they're only crossing paths a little nowadays because of companies like Zynga and Rovio making big bucks right alongside other Facebook and mobile apps. Otherwise angel investors probably wouldn't care a lick about gaming.
