I've mostly concluded that it depends on personal tastes and momentum.
I bought a PS4 at launch last year, and a Wii U in December. At the time I also picked up a Day 1 Xbox One as a great deal, paying just 450 on eBay. However after looking at the differences between PS4 and XB1 I dicided there was no real justification to owning both at the time and I sold the XB1.
This November, with current deals I got an XB1 for essentially $200 and tax.
My opinion though is very different. I like to play all kinds of games, not just a handful of exclusives as you can probably tell from my Sig. Today I will add GTAV and FC4 to the list.
As the consoled are mostly similar, except multiplats coming out better on PS4, its easy to see I value my Ps4 much more highly.
Over the next 8 months, I expect I'll be adding 3 or 4 games to my XB1 library, and 15 to my PS4 library.
I also don't have a good appreciation for the Xbox Ones user experience. Some of this is because I don't have a kinect. Some is because of momentum with PS4. Anyway I think the slowness of installing games on XB1 is undebatable, and the XB1's store is also undebatably poor compared to PS4.
The controllers, I find them the same for shooters. For anything that requires selecting options, or fighting games the DS4 is miles better IMO.
Anyway its not worth debating personal tastes. We debate about sales predictions, and why we think one will do better than the other. That is not arguing against your taste, just trying to reason about things overall.
