Umm... the reason they loaned them that money a long time ago, was because they needed it to make the game. GTA4 was continually being pushed back, and if MS had not stepped up to pay, it would have released months ago, and been less of a game. What MS gets in return for bailing them out, is exclusive DLC. MS did not pay 50 mill for the DLC, they forward funded the development of the game with a loan that R* is to pay back. Does it look like I am paying attention now? |
No, it looks worse. Rockstar did not need any money from anyone to complete this game. They have plenty. You may have heard of a few games called GTA 3, Vice City, San Andreas? I heard they sold well. You are acting like Microsoft was their loan shark. The money was all about DLC.
