if your wondering why GTA IV isn't exclusive
its because R* wants GTA IV to sell quicker
than other games out in october (halo 3) so
sony let them out of the exclusive deal.

:? I think everyone knew that GTA IV was never an exclusive, it is probably the most sold/popular game made for gamers, they will sell it on as many consoles as possible, heck the Nintendo Wii are trying to cash in on it (would be like Liberty City Stories).

yes they did

R* and sony struck up a deal that they would allow the exclusivity contract to be cancelled in exchange for the guarrantee that the new big R* franchise will be PS3 exclusive

you have to think of the big picture, realistically after this GTA where can the series go?

Rock* pulling out of exclusivity and Ps3 getting a Rock* exclusive were 2 seperate deals.GTA is costing a lot of money and if they were to release it on the Ps3 as an exclusive then they would of lost money.And Rock* is only giving Ps3 an exclusive because at the moment, it can't afford to piss any company off with its financial state.They gave Microsoft the exclusive episodic content to make them happy and Sony L.A Noire to make them happy.
