I'm not sure.
If it was fully funded already and was going to be made for both PS4 and X1 with no moneyhat, then I think it's crap. I hate 3rd party moneyhatting like that.
If it was unfunded and not going to be made, and Sony ponied (lol) up the cash to get it done, then I have no problem with it.
Bayonetta 2 AFAIK was only made because Nintendo footed the bill. I'm okay with that.
Titanfall was apparently in development hell and had hit the wall in funding, and Microsoft footed the bill in exchange for exclusivity. I'm okay with that. (assuming true, which some people debate, but I'm uninterested in that here so take it at face value).
Tomb Raider was from all reports a successful franchise that had a sequel announced already, funding should have been no problem, and THEN Microsoft apparently moneyhatted it for exclusivity. THAT SUCKS. If this SF5 deal is the same (already funded and on course for multiplat, but derailed by moneyhats), then damnit. I hate this kind of crap.
