Sony has to take some blame for trotting these games out at E3 and other shows pretending like they are exclusives when they have no contract.

Why would they need a contract to say a game is exclusive? If they have been promised that a game will be exclusive, why shouldn't they present it as such?

Because it's not exclusive unless there is a contract. Promises mean squat in the business world. Sony knows this better than anyone.

These games were announced long ago, when a promise of a game staying exclusive was much more likely to hold true. The word 'exclusive' is twisted a lot already though, Microsoft presented games for the 360 that were 'exclusive' despite being on the PC as well at last year's E3. So anything that looks like an exclusive will be used for PR.
