I thought MS had Paid for this too...But word is that RockStar asked MS for a Loan and that's why the DLC for GTA are exclusive....So no...MS did not pay for GTA IV exclusive content....and I'm not sure that they paid for FFXIII

I'm sure I can't think of them all, but there's also Devil May Cry and Tekken that used to be exclusive to Playstation. However, it may have had nothing to do with MS paying for those. Capcom and Namco that decided to go multiplatform on their own.
Keep this in mind when reading what I type...
I've been gaming longer than many of you have been alive.

I thought you meant what exclusives went multi, as we don't even know, if FFXIII was paid for, which you strangely claimed earlier, and now are questioning... make up your mind.

Halo sold well because the series is the must-have series in the FPS genre.
Competition? Halo 3 had to deal with Call of Duty: Modern Warfare shortly after it's release. Only a newbie to VGC (sorry bud) would not 'get' that Halo had major compeititon.
I don't get the exclusives issue, how does that matter? The 360 had a glut of exclusives in 2007.
Sorry, but I'm tired of newbies and their apologetic attitude for great SW sales on the 360. The system does well, get over it. Instead, focus on flegdling PS3 sales, and analyzing how Sony can somehow make it back to the top of the heap.
Back from the dead, I'm afraid.

The point is that a lot of Halo fans don't seem to realize that there are other FPS fans that don't think Halo is anything special. There's no doubting that it has been an important series for Microsoft, but I have a long list of FPS games I'd rather play before Halo. I find the Rainbow Six Vegas series, Call of Duty series, Medal of Honor Airborne, Killzone, Metroid Prime 3, Medal of Honor Heroes 2, Resistance series and Battlefield Bad Company to all be more fun than Halo. But, again, that's just me. And before you flame me...yes I've played the Halo series. Liked it. Didn't love it.

Wait wait, why are MGS4, Heavenly Sword, Uncharted etc. "AAA" exclusives and games like Mass Effect, Forza, Fable, Dead or Alive 4 not?
"Pier was a chef, a gifted and respected chef who made millions selling his dishes to the residents of New York City and Boston, he even had a famous jingle playing in those cities that everyone knew by heart. He also had a restaurant in Los Angeles, but not expecting LA to have such a massive population he only used his name on that restaurant and left it to his least capable and cheapest chefs. While his New York restaurant sold kobe beef for $100 and his Boston restaurant sold lobster for $50, his LA restaurant sold cheap hotdogs for $30. Initially these hot dogs sold fairly well because residents of los angeles were starving for good food and hoped that the famous name would denote a high quality, but most were disappointed with what they ate. Seeing the success of his cheap hot dogs in LA, Pier thought "why bother giving Los Angeles quality meats when I can oversell them on cheap hotdogs forever, and since I don't care about the product anyways, why bother advertising them? So Pier continued to only sell cheap hotdogs in LA and was surprised to see that they no longer sold. Pier's conclusion? Residents of Los Angeles don't like food."
"The so-called "hardcore" gamer is a marketing brainwashed, innovation shunting, self-righteous idiot who pays videogame makers far too much money than what is delivered."

Good question, but rest assured, it's not because of fanboyism.
