If you have a tonne of disposable income, why not?

I have both the X1 and the PS4. The X1 has better games right now (outside of indies), but frankly neither one is worth buying right now if money is tight.

Why, indies are not regular games? Some of the best games I have played in my life were indies.

So your argument is: "XB1 has better exclusive retail boxed games at launch?", seriously?

The true is that PS4 has better/more games at launch, right now and would have even more in the future. Since the launch the PS4 wins at quantity and quality (the best scored metacritic exclusive game is on PS4 with Resogun, truth fact) + free games choice.

But, yes, ok, XB1 has more retail exclusive games at launch you are right here, but not sure modern digital gamers really care about that.

My argument is as stated - unless you have a large amount of discretionary income, neither console is worth the price of admission right now.

As already outlined in this thread, Resogun is clearly a good game.  It is also not even close to utilising the extensive capabilities inherent in the hardware we all have to pay an awful lot of money for.  I am inclined to believe that outside of the kinds of people who frequent these forums, the vast majority of the greater than 150 million people who purchase pricey home consoles care very much about the sorts of high profile big-budget titles they can purchase for their system.

Well in this case I am sure many bought the PS4 because they know PS4 has the better version of most multiplats. COD@1080p instead of 720p, AC4@1080p/900p, BF4@900p/720p, the recent Trial Fusion 1080p/900p (almost 800p phew), the future Watchdogs 1080p/9??p etc. And judging by the stats about multiplats sales gamers know it too.

The only argument that is true is still "XB1 has more retail exclusives at launch". Is that still really a winning argument?

"Resogun...It is also not even close to utilising the extensive capabilities inherent in the hardware we all have to pay an awful lot of money for" sarcasm? Because you can't be serious.
