I agree.  pgf is by far the best.  There's also qtree, and qobitree.  I
think this is the sort of thing you're looking for.

I find all of these things to be cumbersome, though.  For game theory and
decision trees, I find it to be easier to draw them in open office, export
them as pdf, and use graphicx package to include them.
