If you're an Xbox One owner sure the line up is good but games like Titanfall, Project Spark, and Killer Instict virtually had no impact on Microsfts success. Arguably the biggest game this year; Batman will actually help push PS4 sales due to Sony's better advertising plan, much like what they did with Destiny. Personally I believe people will buy what they see in variety. Xbox One lacks that variety that the PS4 has. PS4 has great internal support, the japanese developers and the much better 3rd party advertising plan. Micorsoft will definitely lose the sales battle and I mean by a lot because they have 0 chance to win the "year" in terms of sales, as to who has the better library? That is gonna be different from person to person. You're right about them building a library of great exclusives though. I dont think Tomb Raider will do anything for hardware sales that's a playstation game on the wrong platform really but Halo 5 will sell like hotcakes.

I own a PS4 and Xbox One, but the Xbox One has been getting more play because it's had more exclusives available that I want to play. When Tekken comes on the PS4 I am turning that baby back on. I already know how great Sony is, but they aren't securing hits like Microsoft is even if the world doesn't know about it. This is coming from someone who games mostly on Sony (even though I game on multiple consoles), and I know that Sony's first two years are generally the worst, so I expect this until they build up their new IP's like I know they can. The Wii U is also getting some love from me this year. It will make a great third to my collection for the gen so I miss out on nothing.
Tomb Raider has gained a following after being on multiple consoles just like Dark Souls. It might persuade a couple of people to pick up an Xbox One just like Halo 5 will get quite a few people to get Xbox Ones this year. The PS4 has nothing really of note for the restof the year after Bloodborne and no Until Dawn wont even dent Microsofts exclusives and timed exclusives.

It's a little too subjective; for me, only Titanfall was an exclusive to care about (possibly the best of all 3 consoles). Essentially, every other big ticket item was/is multiplat. No, I have not played Bloodborne, but it does not have the appeal to me that TF has. My most played games were/are Destiny and Far Cry 4, and my most anticipated games are Batman, FF XVI, MGS V, and UC4 (3 of 4 are multiplat). Most exclusives this gen have been filler, but judgment is still reserved on BB (I won't assume anything.). By that token, I'd have to say Sony was, is, and should continue to win.
