Sony has a higher annual revenue than Microsoft and Nintendo put together... besides M$ spent $30,000,000 for the exclusive GTAIV content. I'm sure Sony can come up with $30,000,000.Zero5000X

revenue =/= profit.

It's pointless for any developers to accept a deal like that.

Because there's no reason to make a PS3 exclusive game when it's software sells like crap compared to the other 2 consoles.

your not making any sense bro. if its a great game it will sell. THE SOFTWARE will sell.

To who?  The PS3's install base is, at best, 5 million.  The 360 and Wii's is double that.
