Lets give him the benefit of the doubt. Maybe he's not lying. But just spinning the truth a little.
Nowhere did he say that it will cost the exact same amount for them as it would for Sony to land third party exclusives. Hell, notice he said devs have their own view of the market in relation to their product.
So yeah, maybe its about money. In the sense that Sony is getting the deals because they are willing to spend it while MS isn't. What he's just not saying is that MS isn't spending it cause "due to the difference in install base" it would cost them significantly more for the deal than it would cost Sony. It also doesn't help that while paying for the exclusive deal they still end up with the worse performing version of the game. So there really is no sense in buying exclusivity anymore.
