Sony just pays the indies, it's that simple.  Sony has bought up as much indie games as possible.

got any source for that? the fact is sony advertises their games, lets them launch on other consoles, has the best hardware, offers the best support and has the biggest install base. they dont need to pay any money. 

Well, when a dev like Lab Zero Games talks about "exclusivity periods" where they can't release their game anywhere else, what excactly does that mean to you?

To me this doesn't sound like "we bring our game only to Sony devices because we like Sony so much"

Where exactly did people get from that Sony pays devs but only starting exactly at a specific size this dev has to have? Where did anyone ever write down "we as Sony pay only "AA" or bigger devs". Absolutely no clue why so many Sony fans think that.
