Given their resources, they could try creating non-shit games. Why not try and create an awesome console/PC title? I just don't get why they insist on making the same uninspired games over and over again. They had a good run, it's not working anymore. Time to move on.

Thats like asking "Given {insert name of rich scam artist here}'s resources why doesn't he actually sell real paintings. Dishonest people [1] like to run dishonest companies, would be my guess.

That's true, it's not in their DNA. On the other hand they could just buy a promising indie developer, throw money at them and get out of the way.
