X1's major problem is the same reason that allowed the PS3 to overtake the 360 last generation: not having enough game diversity. Seeing Microsoft's E3 conference confirmed my skepticism about X1's future because MS played it too safe. What allowed the PS3 to catch up was Sony's willingness to invest in risks. That resulted in games such as Journey, Flower, The Last of Us, Little Big Planet series, and so forth. On top of that, the PS3 trumped the 360 in JPRG's and is continuing to do so now.
The PS4's lineup for the rest of this year actually caters to a wide variety of audiences. Guilty Gears Xrd -SIGN-, for example, caters to the fighter fans while LBP 3 appeals to the creative and younger gamers. TLOU Remastered will attract the survival/horror fans that never owned a PS3. Next year, the PS4 will continue to offer a wide variety of games such as The Order, Uncharted 4, Rime, Everybody's Gone to the Rapture, MLB The Show, and Bloodborne. And of course, the PS4 will eventually get its JPRGs like Tales, Atelier, Disgaea, and Hyperdimension Neptunia.
