Better idea: relocate all development to Eastern Europe, where there are skilled workers that speak English and prices are still very low.

Well, that was pretty much what I meant.

Why keep the creative element in the US then? Witcher, Arma, Stalker, Metro 2033 show that all of the work can be done there.

Exactly what I was thinking. Some people are too elitist, thinking only USA and Japan developers are good. What was the last awesome thing done by Square-Enix? What about Gearbox Software's unstable quality level? And Bethesda Softworks' abysmal quality control?
