Because they can!

Because they don't need them: there are more "aspiring" game designer or 
artist that they can employ...

Also because there is no concept of "artist creation" in Videogames: all 
character and design belong to the company... It's cheaper that way: there 
is no royalties to pay.

Well, that's just my perception anyway
