That doesn't happen for no reason. It would have been a lot easier for third parties to clutch onto the PS3 this generation. Something has happened between this generation and the last one. And it is not only Microsoft spending dollars to get them. It has to do with a lot of things like cost to develop.
If you want to develop a new game that your not sure on how the market will take to it, and you have $10 million to make it, will you choose a platform that you know it will require $10 million to build on and has 27 million install base and it is firm firm date to ship, or would you make it on a platform where your costs may be $12 - $15 million for a console that has a 19.5 million install base and in development that it takes an extra 3 months to figure something out on the platform?
