Sony did not 'pass up' the exclusive content. MS got the game to be multiplat, and then they approached R* about the possibility.
On the topic of new IPs, it is true that they haven't been lighting the sales charts up, but neither did Halo for the Xbox right off the bat--once people experienced it, loved it, told people about it, and convinced them to buy an Xbox for it, that was how Halo 2 and 3 became so insaenely popular. I don't know if a game like Uncharted or Warhawk will garner such massive sales, but, as has been said, you do need to wait for sequels to find out how well these games REALLY did.
