Either way with the information release that a sequel is coming out Sony decided to pick the company up. Hopefully they won't be a one hit wonder. http://www.joystiq.com/2007/09/20/sony-buys-motorstorm-developer-sequel-coming/

My guess is it has nothing to do with Motorstorm itself, the dev house is a talented studio that came up with an impressive game engine on the PS3 whereas others couldn't/can't. Like Rare used to be able to do before Nintendo sold them.
