You can make a pretty professional album with a band of five people and a few thousand dollars in equipment. Game budgets regularly breach 10s of millions.

The game development business it's very similar to music industry right now

many small indie actors, few giant ones

minecraft was created by a single developer, angry birds costed officially around 100K, both made hundreds of millions

putting up a band that sells records in the tens of millions doesn't cost less than making angry birds

and it's harder to get to that point, band that sells so many records are just a few

For example Lady gaga sold globally less than 9 millions records, Angry Birds has exceeded 12 millions
