How are games created from the ground up?

I'm just curious as to how game companies create games from scratch. Like what programs do they use to make the game engine, create models, create sounds. It all seems so complicated yet I read that like 6 guys created STALKER...

Most retail games are made using pre-built although highly modified engines. Only select propriety developers build their own game engines from the ground up, even those use templates or the kernel from an earlier engine.

Here you go...get started > http://www.devmaster.net/engines/ Score about a million in coin hire the PR devs and build us a new great game!

Don't you mean how games are created from the top down? Much like Battlefield 2...

Some of those engines don´t seem very expensive though, some are even free?

They must be very simple right?

Looks like engines created by private persons/teams. I don't think Valve needs to distribute and sell Source through the internet.
