What about academically trained programmers who have since worked in
either the business world or the sciences? Frankly, I think the
game industry's apparent disdain for established engineering
practices is somewhat foolish. It's as if the perception that the
game is art somehow nullifies the need to produce quality software.

From what I've seen, this practice of crunch-time is primarily
restricted to the gaming software world. First, unrealistic
deadlines are generally established by marketing or management.
Second, it's the mark of a competent programmer to foresee not only
how long a particular task will take, but the potential issues that
may arise, and any potential political changes that may occur in
that timeframe. That is, programmers typically have to think 6
months or more ahead as they work. With the mercurial nature of
many decision-makers, the programmer should also be able to
anticipate any issues that may arise and plan accordingly. Part of
that is by making easily maintainable software, the other is to
assess the importance of each task and to balance this with an
estimate of how likely that task is to change or be eliminated, and
when. IMO competent programmers are as aware of the dynamics of
their work environment as the dynamics of their code. The more
adept that they are at this, the less their efforts will be wasted
on things that hindsight may prove unnecessary.
So I think the issue comes down to a matter of poor planning (which
hearkens back to lack of established engineering practices) and an
overzealous marketing department. Other companies may have crunch
time at times, but in my experience this is generally the result of
last-minute changes that the programmers did not anticipate or the
discovery of bugs that must be fixed as soon as possible.

The comparison to movies does somewhat hold -- it's still an
entertainment industry. And Hollywood is slowly learning that
following the three-ring-binder of movie design does not gurantee
that the movie will be a success. Further, the past few years have
seen a shift from blockbusters towards more independent films, in
terms of audience preference. It seems there have been similar
issues in the game industry.

Outside anyone, for that matter. It's like the gaming industry is
an underground rock movement that holds all the "sellouts" in
contempt, then wonders why it is not more successful. I grant that
things are changing (signified by the focus shift in "Game Developer
Magazine") but it's taking a while for the ideas to seep in.

There is probably a fear of being turned into Dilbert's office, but
IMO this is misplaced. A work environemnt is the product of the
people that create it. If you hire someone who turns out to be a
pointy-haired boss, find someone else who works better with the
team. But in my experience, a more structured environment gives the
people that work there a more regular schedule and more resulting
free time. If this happened, the game industry might see more
competent professionals willing to work at game companies, as they
would not be trading away their lives as a result. Of course the
salary level would also have to become more competitive as new hires
might not necessarily be straight out of highschool with no leverage
to speak of. This would in turn decrease profit margins, etc.
Gone are the days of garage game shops. When will the business
practices follow suit?
