I've said it a dozen times now, and since you missed it, I'll repeat.
It's not that the 360 is more satisfying than ps3, but that it's more satisfying than x1.
The x1 is basically an upgraded 360 with kinect.
Casuals really catapulted the 360 make into significance back in 2008 or 10 or whenever it was. 360 was about to be overtaken and kinect sent them another 20m or so customers. These casual customers don't care about graphical upgrades. For them, x1 is just a shitload of money for the exact same thing they already have, or could already get, for 300$ cheaper.
Playstation has always been where the more hardcore gamers go. Even 360 fans ridiculed ps fans for this notion, and lack of foresight on changing trends.
So, when ps4 beat x1 is specs and performance on nearly every game, we see the results. In fact, it's more fair to say ps4 is competing with x360. So from that angle ps4 is vastly superior. It's not hard to see why ps4 is doing so well when you think of this more broad understanding of the competition.
