They are paying for the first round of advertisement -- and possibly giving them some of their internal developers to optimize the XB1 version.

Microsoft is NOT funding the game. Don't kid yourself... it wouldn't come to PS4 if MS paid for actual development.

"And we will definitely be spending money on developing the game - I want it to look as great as it can be." The paragraph after that has some details also. 

They're not funding it as much as Nintendo funded Bayonetta, but they are definitely doing a lot more than marketing and bundles. 

 

OT: If 30 is stable then there isn't anything wrong with that. 

 

Its the same situation that MS tried to do with Diablo III. They are sending internal devs onsite.
