Reasons for why Microsoft has timed exclusives (NO TROlLS OR HATERS HERE)

[KeptoKnight]

"Uncharted 2 cost like $20M I believe. Gears 1 cost $10M (and you can quote me on that one) Microsoft paid $50M for Episodes of Liberty City, and that's going to be on the PS3 soon.
Cost effective to not make 1st party IPs instead?"

Wow Bm, never knew that >
