It isn't absolute, but sales shows what the public think is better for them.

That might be the case with the PS4 but on the PS3 side there are rarely any good flash sales or sales for PS+ members.  On the 360 there are sales for Gold members every week.

Why would anyone be jealous?

Prefering something over something else isn't jealousy.

Seriously, you should try the quote button. 

In fact, you should probably just let it go. Nobody really cares.

Not a fan of a huge quote tree.  Just hitting the reply button is a whole lot easier.

And then your comment gets lost in-between other conversations, and the one you're replying to doesn't get a blue notification. 

But as I said, nobody cares. Not even you, it seems.

Xbox One is a great system, the only reason why it's trailing this generation is because MS shafted their marketing message during launch, and had generally odd pricing and marketing choices. Some people even this year still think that X1 can't play used games.

But beyond that, people buy consoles for a VARIETY of factors, and it's sometimes not just the games. It's price, it's console design / size, controller feel, ease of access, regional support, on and on etc etc.

Bottom line is the X1 is SELLING WELL, just not AS good as the PS4. That doesn't make it a lesser product, that decision is UP TO YOU to determine that. It's your money, your choices. Buy what YOU want to buy and play, and forget what the public tells you to buy.

The PS4 is a good system too, but it's games and a variety of factors don't line-up with what I want to play so I have no interest in it. 

Look at the Wii, that console destroyed the PS3 and 360 in sales and no one saw it coming. That system had nothing to do with processing power, or in my opinion even great games. 

Judging a game or console or anything else purely on sales is pretty silly.  The Dreamcast failed to sell much but its still one of the best consoles of all time.  The first Shenmue game losts millions but its still one of the best games of the late 90s and early 2000s.  The Shawshank Redemption failed to make a profit during its theatrical run but still is one of the best movies of all time.  They only made 351 of them but the Toyota 2000GT is still one of the best cars from the 60s.

You're exactly right, sales is great, but it also does NOT equate to something being "better". It's for the market to judge. Dreamcast was a great system.

Justin Bieber may have sold 100million albums but that doesn't mean... everybody has to love him or his music. Meanwhile some random new artist named Bob might have sold 50,000 and people think he's the greatest singer in the world.

WHO'S TO JUDGE?

Well, since you asked;

- Less powerful hardware when compared to it's main competitor, the PS4.
- Considerably larger in size compared to the PS4 and Wii U.
- Xbox Live Gold is a required subscription to play games online, and more expensive than PS+
- Lack of compelling software exclusives (my personal taste)
