Gebx sent an email to the journalist about the "Timed exlcusive" comment in his article and this is his reply
G,
There's been no confirmation that the content is a "perpetual exclusive" to the Xbox 360. Unfortunately, the word "exclusive" these days doesn't mean what it used to mean.
As of right now, the content for the Xbox 360 version is exclusive through to the end of 2008. After that, there's no clear answer as to whether or not the content will be made available on the PS3. This is the presumption that the article runs with, as indicated within the text of the article and elsewhere on Ars.
Sorry for the misunderstanding. Hope that clears it up for you. :)

Gebx isn't going to reply back.. He just wants to show how badly MS is marketing its products... and wonders if the writers second paragraph has any truth behind it...
