Perhaps the Indie Game Dev movement is a better way to go...
AAA games companies should stop over-promising features and over-working their staff, and go the Blizzard route of "It'll ship when it's ready", I'm sure that will make for a much happier working environment for game developers.

Even those that do make the charts happen to be 1-hit success leading to studios closing down. If you follow Gamasutra or magazines like RetroGamer, most in games development community either eventually leave it, or embrace it and switch cities, countries every time a studio goes down. There are people that enjoy living like that, me not.
