People need to understand it isn't about exclusives anymore. It is about the entire experience. If all your friends have an Xbox you will get an Xbox. You may buy both systems, but the majority will get what the rest of their friends get. |
Exclusives will always matter. Without them, your "friends" wouldn't have a need to grab an Xbox over a PlayStation, and vice-versa. I know I bought both the PS3 and Xbox 360 because each system had their own features not available elsewhere (exclusive games being a huge factor).
Otherwise, you're saying Halo, Uncharted, Gears of War, and Gran Turismo shouldn't be exclusive games since they have no definitive pull, which would be nonsense.

It isn't just about exclusives. Some people maybe pick up the console for the Kinect 2.0 or maybe cause the Xbox may be cheaper than the PS4 or maybe even cause they want a new cable box.

Kinect 2.0 would still be an exclusive feature. Then again, no where in my post did I say it was "just about exclusives".
Also, I think it's funny talking to Xbox people today, six years ago, it was "better than the PS3 BECAUSE of the exclusives".

I am surprised someone would end up talking about a console's interface as "the experience". "The experience" is a rationalization for one's own biases because of a religious attachment to a brand name. or rationalizing what one's clique plays. The idea here is to ask, exactly what do you need in order to put up with things that is arguably HORRIBLE for the consumer. I asked about DIVX before. Go look that one up.
It is about what is unique to a console ownership that would make you remain loyal.
