I don't think this is the truth, as they'd alienate ten or twenty million PS3 owners from playing the sequels, but this could be true, as stranger things have happened.

Microsoft gave a no-risk loan of FIFTY MILLION DOLLARS to Take Two at a time when they were desperately in need of liquid cash.

It would not be at all strange for this to turn out true. 

 

But why would take two take fifty million dollars, when they could easily sell two three or four million units on the PS3 and easily make that back... 

Considering publisher/devs get around 15% of a game's price, they would have to sell over 5 millions units on the PS3 at 70 dollars to get those 50 millions dollars back. Not even mentionning the money they'll get from the DLC...

So of course, it would be (easily ?) possible, but the MS deal was already very interesting, even more if you consider Take2 has been in the red for the last 3 years...
