Microsoft published it because it was a timed exclusive, after it was over the devs partnered with Sony in bringing it over to the PSN and Vita.


Show me where you see sony publishing this game on PSN.  I honestly feel like you are just saying this now because you dont want to admit that you was wrong. I have been looking and i dont see anywhere where it says sony made any kind of deal to bring it to sony.  This was the developers choice, not sony. there is no kind of partnership in the matter what so ever.  IF you want to prove me wrong then bring information to me and ill gladly change it

Usually devs partner with the platform holder to bring it over to the system, you can't just release your own game without the consensus of Sony.
Without the bag of money from Microsoft the game would've released simultaneously, its highly likely under this agreement Microsoft took the publishing costs on its own account as part of the timed exclusivity deal. As the game came out on PSN, its pointless to consider this game a partnership between Microsoft and the devs.

Your criteria for your 3rd party list is nonsense as you only consider those games when they're first published with a platform while later they're also released on others. You don't even consider games that have not been published by the platform holder but still get released on a certain platform only, so your whole idea of 3rd party partnership is flawed.


Oh ok, so I guess every single game ever released is a partner to sony, msft, and nintendo.  When somebody publishes a game that means they put money down to support it because they have trust in a title.  Without publishers most developers would be going out of business.


Sine Mora would've come out regardless of Microsoft publishing it, they did it because it was a timed exclusive. Otherwise Digital Reality would've published it just like they did on PSN. Your logic in considering what is 3rd party partnership is flawed. On one hand you consider a timed exclusive a partnership, on the other a game that is coming out on 1 platform only (with platform holder not as publisher) is not a partnership.
