Wednesday night, Sony took all of us press and media folks out to dinner at the Tengu restaurant in Santa Monica. While sitting amongst my table of journalists and eating delicious asian sushi, I asked what were some of the rumors they had heard circulating in the industry. We all talked about Bioshock, Tivo, video on demand, and then eventually made our way to the recent talk of Rockstar going exclusive with Sony after GTAIV with such titles as LA Noire, and the secret PS3 title. The talk lead to someone stating that they knew that not only was the rumor correct but there was more to it. Basically from what I heard, Sony was taking Rockstar under its wing. Now I don't know if that means they are buying them or if they are supporting them as if they were someone like Naughty Dog or Insomniac.

What happened was then after dinner I got on MSN IM and discussed it with my fellow staffers; telling them about the day with Sony and some of the stuff I heard. One of them took the rumors, and posted it as news on PSU the next morning and everything went from there. Our editors had no idea what had happened and I woke to journalists questioning me about it. Big mess up and misunderstanding.

Anyways, hopefully this kind of clears it up for you. Hopefully you can forgive us and we can move on from here. Thanks!

From my point of view and not that of PSU's: I honestly think its happening from what I have heard, but I can't give names.
