I'm not sure about this either. It probably have to do with all the other game genres. I guess it would be hard to compete with 3D games like Gears of War and Mafia 2, even though you have really good looking 2D games. It's interesting, because I have spoken to adventure game developers, and (almost) everyone claims that creating a 2D game would be cheaper than 3D. But as I said, I think it has to do with competition from the other genres.
As for games to play, try out: Discworld 2 and Runaway (if it counts - the characters are built by 3D models I think?).
