Another thing is that having the next big game means an incredible
amount of money - more than a Hollywood blockbuster, according to
popular rumor.  Many companies may be willing to take a risk on
promising but immature technology in the hope that it will give them
the advantage they need to deliver the next Halo (or whatever).

Very competitive industry, large money involved, lots of software
rewritten or developed from scratch.  Sounds ideal.  Any boss who
insists on doing things the way they've always done it won't last
long.
