I learned a while go that if the monotonous Fable/Forza/Halo/Gears cycle isn't for you, you shouldn't really bother with an X1. Sony just has much more variety and their first party are actually great. MS' first party are just game farms for specific franchises.

I wouldn't count out XBLA. It consistently delievered more numerically and critically every year. Basically where MS couldn't sustain the AAA retail effort, they focused resources on XBLA instead. Shame they were largely overlooked by the larger gaming community because Sony was still releasing more AAA retail in the last few years.

XBLA games don't count remember? But indies on the other hand....
