Well Sony's strategy always has been to have quite a few 2-3 million sellers instead of just having two 5+ million sellers like MS.
They are not so dependent on one franchise. |

Gears isn't first party. And I thought ME wasn't since there was rumours about it being on PS3? Not sure but I was under the impression they were an EA studio?

Gears 1-2 were a first party productions, even if Microsoft doesn't own the IP. Ditto with the first Mass Effect. It's a bit like Crash 1-3 or Spyro 1-3 on the PS1 (Universal owns the IPs, they were 3rd party developed, but still 1st party productions). Microsoft funded development, Microsoft staff worked on the games, they handled publishing and promotion entirely... they just don't own IP.
