Your very first point hurts your cause. It's not set in stone at all that the PS4 will outsell the other consoles this gen, although it sure does have a lot going for it right now.
And I think you iterate the "PS4 is the most powerful" point to often with the "multiplats/res framerate .." points.

True. PS4 is going to have it's issues, and ever since the "let's hit Microsoft where it hurts and make our console look great" hype train that was the E3 reveal, there has been this growing chorus of people online practically shitting themselves, believing that it is, in fact, going to be "the most amazing game console ever made". That has yet to be proven, let alone validated at all. The actual design of the console in some ways is uglier than the original PS2 or PS3 designs, the controller honestly looks kind of silly, as if they really just tacked on the "touch pad" part, which I don't see having a huge impact on game design. In that regard, while I hate to say so because I have never liked the Xbox controller design, the "One" controller looks better than the PS4 one. There is also zero indication that multiplats are "going to" automatically look or be better on PS4. The same was originally assumed of PS3, yet the opposite wound up being true in many cases. Yes, the PS4 is said to be much simpler to develop for, but that doesn't mean that every developer is going to automatically be able to get the most out of that hardware. And just because it has the most powerful hardware, does not by any stretch of the imagination mean that it will ALWAYS have the best looking games of the gen. If that were true, games like Shadow of the Colossus and Mario Galaxy would not have existed in past gens.

 

And yes, ultimately, once this initial buzz and hype for PS4 die down, there is zero guarantee that it's going to wind up being "the highest selling console of the generation". That remains to be seen, and won't likely be determined for years. The only valid point the OP makes is that all three consoles will undoubtedly have good games for them, and that arguing over a lot of the shit people do in forums like this IS pointless. But every other point he tries to make is rather foolish, in my view.

Have you been reading different news than everyone??? Multiplats are performing better on PS4.

About the control, most reviewers seemed to like it, so unless you had personal experience with it and didn't liked I don't see from were you took that (maybe you just don't like the pad?)
