However, this time around the PS4 is easier to work with AND has the better hardware, so it's overall just a better console. Speaking my own opinion, I prefer the X360 to the PS3, but I prefer PS4 to X1.

And the reason why Sony is doing so well is because they focused on games and hardware, and more importantly released their new system around the same time as Microsoft did which wasn't the case at all last gen that's why the Xbox 360 won. This is Sony at their best like they were in the PSX/PS2 days, that's why they're consistently winning the console wars.

I honestly didn't expect to have an equal amount of games. I like how easy it is to store an external 6TB hard drive on the Xbox one but like the internal upgrade of the PS4 hard drive but it's only limited to 1GB.

                  This is crazy. Even though microsoft did the brst thing they can do to recover from the disastrous initial xbox one announcement by focussing on games and releasing AAA exclusives on the xbox one, they still can't catch up with ps4 even though ps4 doesnt have any aaa playstation exclusives released yet. Better luck next xbox

                          Both have one issue or another. Many games render at different resolution or different framerate between the two, so saying one is clearly better is not really valid.
                          The PS4 on the other hand is objectively better as a LOT runs at a higher resolution on it compared to the X1, while on the X1 I'm not aware of any such case (note: I = myself, there could be an exception somewhere but I haven't heard of it).

                                I guess it should thanks to few big game such as:- The Last Guardian, Final Fantasy VII Remake and Shenmue III that attract more gamer to buy the console.

                                      I don't want to start the typical hate war (which will start anyway) but c'mon, was there any doubt it would?
                                      The x360 and PS3 were pretty evenly matched, but with the X1 and PS4 there is no comparison, the PS4 is objectively better, how is this surprising to anyone? (and I'm not saying the X1 is terrible, I actually don't like both of them)
