I owned both the 360 and PS3 this gen. The 360 was my first Microsoft console. I've been a Sony supporter since the PS1 but decided to give the 360 a chance because they had a lot of great exclusive, in particular a lot of JRPG exclusives early on. Games like Lost Odyssey, Blue Dragon, Tales of Vesperia, Eternal Sonata, Infinite Undiscovery were enough to sway me to purchase the console. However, what I've noticed is that those great 3rd party exclusives basically stopping coming to the 360 by year 3 or 4 of the life cycle and I've begun to play almost exclusively on my PS3.
So like what a lot of people here have already mentioned, I know that Sony will continue to invest in their consoles come year 5 and beyond of the life cycle. Just this year alone we have exclusives like Ni no Kuni, The Last of Us, Beyond; Two Souls, GT6, Rachet & Clank: Into the Nexus still coming to the PS3 whereas Microsoft has largely abandoned the 360. I may still get an X1 eventually, but it probably won't be much later down the line after a couple of price cuts. I want to make sure that I'm not investing $500+ in a console that I'm going to enjoy for 2 good years and then sit and collect dust like it was for my 360 this gen.
