Did Sony pay a bigger loan/advance? :) Yeah you’re right it was just a loan/advance, but the question still stands… Did Sony pay a bigger loan/advance? :)

I've pointed this out several times but no-one ever bastard listens :) Microsoft did not give/pay/whatever rockstar $50 million, it was loaned as an upfront deal. Imagine it like a record company's advance to an artist. “Did they outdo Microsoft’s $50million?”

Though I think Sony should have just asked for some GTA 5 or 6 exclusivity in the future when the PS3 base will have grown, rather than a new IP.

I believe originally some were saying it was part of the deal to let GTA IV go to the 360... but that's purely the rumour mill talking. They’ve had a “rockstar exclusive” tied up for a long time.

Surely Sony must have paid more? Has this actually been confirmed as a REAL exclusive or a timed exclusive? Or has it not been explictly said?
