I believe I remember reading that the $50 million was *originally* to buy an exclusive window and when it finally came out that the game wasn't anywhere near ready for prime-time, R* changed the deal with MS to developing exclusive content... I may be wrong, though. If that is the case, then R* played MS for a complete fool. $50 million was probably more than the entire budget of the game so basically R* used MS's money to develop a game for both leading platforms... I believe it goes something like: outplay, outwit, outlast... or something like that. Well Played, R*.
