Not buying that for a second. If anything, Rockstar has been pulling away from Sony (Table Tennis, exclusive Xbox 360 GTA 4 episodes, Manhunt 2, Bully: Scholarship Edition...), and if Rockstar was really for sale (although I don't know why Take 2 would be selling what is probably their most profitable studio), Microsoft should have no problem outbidding Sony. Also, no reputable gaming website reported on recent Rockstar going PS3 exclusive rumors, just blogs and various lesser websites.

I'm putting this rumor in a fanboys' wishful thinking drawer for now.

Hmm.... Rockstar are pulling away from Sony yet they announced LA Noire as PS3 Exclusive, and Sony themselves confirmed another new IP to be PS3 exclusive. No one is saying they're abandoning sony, but at the same time, there's no arguing they're no longer as fond of the PS as they once were.

That is not pulling away, no matter how you spin it.

Since almost all of Rockstars games were basically Sony exclusives last gen, the fact that only two of their games are Ps3 exclusive now does indeed show them pulling away.
