Not true, Epic is only having Microsoft publish the game. Remember the first few Unreal Tournaments were published by Atari, but newer ones are by Midway. It Is also similar to Valve which has EA publish their titles even though they themselves are a publisher or could get someone else to publish the games too. The devs studio owns the rights, and just sells publishing rights to a studio. Epic could easily sell publishing rights for a Gears Trilogy for PS3 to Midway/EA/Atari/etc.

So its possible for gears 3 to come on the PS3 even if MS is publishing them?

Mass effect 1 had problems so I thought maybe the publisher had some rights over a particular games....

Mass Effect 1 was different, Microsoft paid for the development. With Gears, they didn't. Epic's deal seemed to be that they would optimize their engine for the 360 before they did the PS3, which they did.
