I'm fairly certain that the Xbox One is going to run into a problem that the PS3 has been facing since it launched. It's focusing heavily on that media hub. There will be a lot of people out there that purchase it solely for the ability as a means to watch movies or such as the cable box focus. The PS3 in contrast was bought by many people who wanted the machine solely for a blu-ray player.
In the console market, the money is found in the attach ratio. I personally own about 55+ PS3 games, whereas the average is around 6 I believe? Centering on that media hub focus may be a factor that hurts the Xbox One more then it helps it. The PS3 for the entirety of this generation has had a poor attach rate in comparison to the Xbox 360 which was more focused on gaming for the majority of its lifetime.
Time will tell, and it will surely be interesting too see.
