You're sure I am aware? What did I say that was wrong?  Within the timeframe which Sony has existed in the gaming, EA has profitted the most from them than the other console brands. No matter how much Microsoft pays (which will of course give them perks) Sony will always be a valued partner. If they werent close Sony would've have receieved Mass Effect. 

They just received it because EA would make more money.

Exactly, and EA knows Sonys installed base is good for it. EA doesnt have to worry about the level of interest from Sonys installed base. Everyone knows that EA would give their games to everyone who is profitable. I dont mind a multiplat game but that was just a dirty way to play by making that contract with Bioware to keep the game away. Microsoft should learn that the best way to keep a game away from your competition is to make it yourself. The majority of the games I am sure MS wants to replicate of Sony's, Sony makes themselves or have acquired.
