Pygame is not for making particular types of games.
It's for making game engines.
Pygsear is just a wrapper for Pygame.
Essentially you're using a game engine someone else wrote.
Pygame will get too convoluted if they add engine-specific code to it --
what use is there for rotating a 2d image around an axis if you're using 
pygame with PyOpenGL, for example?
