anyone with common sense and knowledge knows this isnt sony paying developers more money for more content. its developers doing it on their own to attract old/new people to buy that version again in a different console. this is why alot of people are saying MS paying for time exclusives are working in sonys favor. ms funds these games to get a 1 year exclusivity and then it makes it ways over to the ps3 without costing sony with more content on the disk. sony isnt going to fund third parties they are doing something better funding actual first party exclusives that will always remain a ps3 only game. in fact ms dropping 50 million dollars for time exclusives piles up the more they pay using this stragity. remember just because gt4 episodes revenue 100 milions dollars doesnt mean all of that goes to ms. they probably just get 10-15% the rest all goes to rockstar and take two. sony is using that money ms is wasting for third parties time exclusives to fund their first party companies. which most of all the revenue will go back to sony
