I wish more game developers would understand this. I've lost count of 
the number of games that have failed during development because all of 
the source code was stolen or destroyed. I've had arguments with game 
devs (some who've worked at some of the bigger studios) because they're 
convinced that nothing outside of game development has anything to teach 
them...when their (for eg) revision control entails zipping up their 
daily changes and emailing them to the rest of the team...
