I see no lies.

"I promise you, there is no secret plan about the PS3 that we're keeping from people. There's no PS3 development going on that we're hiding. There's lots of stuff that gets into game code, plans change over time and we got an exclusive deal with Microsoft ... that's not a Rosetta Stone discovery."

"I promise you, there is no secret plan about the PS3 that we're keeping from people. There's no PS3 development going on that we're hiding. "
This means that at the time he was asked the question, there was no PS3 version in development and there were no plans to make one. You can not confirm otherwise, so this remains a fact.
"There's lots of stuff that gets into game code, plans change over time and we got an exclusive deal with Microsoft ... that's not a Rosetta Stone discovery."
Code was found in the PC version that alluded to a PS3 version. Development originally started on both platforms, and then they got an exclusivity deal. The details of the deal are unknown to anyone outside of either company (which would presumably include you). At the time the deal was active, thus 'we got an exclusive deal with Microsoft'.
This is all very simple stuff to digest. If anything he said was a lie, you have no basis for the accusations other than the fact that there is now a PS3 version. That does not mean one was secretly in development at the time he made the above comments. You assume so, but that does not make it so.
True he could be lying, but based on the facts and evidence, I see no reason to believe he was lying at the time. You don't know if the PS3 version was being made at the time of his comment, and I don't know why you assume that's the case. Assumptions are pretty useless in the realm of facts and reality.

"Son, we live in a world that has walls and those walls need to be guarded by men with controllers. Who's gonna do it? You? You, sircuddles? I have a greater responsibility than you can possibly fathom. You weep for BioShock and curse the X-Box; you have that luxury. You have the luxury of not knowing what I know: that BioShock's port, while tragic, probably entertained millions and that my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, entertains millions. You don't want the truth because deep down in places you don't talk about at parties you want me on that wall, you need me on that wall. We use words like countdown clock, pre-order code, exclusive. We use then as the backbone of a life trying to defend something. You use them as a punchline. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very interactive experiences I provide and then questions the manner in which I provide it. I would rather you just said "thank you," and went on your way. Otherwise, I suggest that you pick up a controller and stand a post. Either way, I don't give a damn what you think you are entitled to."

Pick his brain about Ayn Rand novels and the complexities of brow sweat related currency. Should be good for a laugh or two.
And an appearance by John Q!

Seriously, Ken, you're better than that. Kick the idiots in the face with a thoughtful game again.

Isn't it fun to ask for games that will never, ever, EVER happen?
