The media bias is hugely in Microsoft's favour, not Sony's.
As for exclusives, lolol. No. That's obviously Sony's domain.
It is very highly logical that most informed people would choose PS4. What we have to consider is how less informed ones are still following suit.
The PS4 managed to be so dramatically better in performance, promise, intentions, etc. that it massively dominated the core gaming audience. And while they aren't often super informed, even many mainstream and casual gamers are picking up on that general "feeling." Basically, the core audience have given the PS4 a very public thumbs up and the opposite for the Xbox One. So, that understood, the REAL question is why Xbox One even puts up a 1:1.5 (and growing, much to Sony's delight) fight at all. And for that we can thank MS' s massive marketing, the large media bias in their favour, their ongoing CoD deal, and to a smaller extent Halo's ongoing popularity.
Also, once the popularity boom starts, it has a tendency to affect what friends and family buy. This is always true and increasingly so with today's vert connected, "friendly" consoles. And the PS4 is the friendliest console yet released, given its huge emphasis on sharing and community.
