It's all a matter of your opinion, and the fact that you seem to openly admit haven't played any PS4 exclusives means the fact that you find Xbox One's exclusives better is pretty meaningless, isn't it? Like you think that Uncharted 4 will give ROTR, a game coming out on PS4, "a run". That is an understatement, but how can you say that when you will probably never play Uncharted 4?
Also, you seem like the first one I've heard call Forza Horizon 2 an arcade racer. It seems to be almost universally pegged as an simulation racer that's more shallow than Forza 6. Having less features, cars and tracks doesn't make it an arcade racer. But that seems like nitpicking on my behalf.
And if we use current Metacritic scores (we shouldn't, it's just favoring one person's opinion over another), SFV is ahead of Killer Instinct, and I haven't bothered to look the others. But I do know that there are 204 PS4 games with a metacritic of 75 and above, compared to X1's 128, so I would strongly suggest against using that argument. At least on the surface it appears that there are almost double the number of "great games" on PS4 based on sheer metacritic numbers, which frankly shouldn't hold much weight in people's minds. Metacritic is overrated.
But to counter your point, it seems difficult to argue that X1 is doing "better than ever before" when the Halo series has taken a nosedive in terms of quality and sales, when Gears Of War is a shadow of its former self, and Forza games now appear to be coming out at a faster rate than Assassin's Creed games. Those have been the big 3 of MS for a long, long time, and nothing has risen up to take the mantle where those have faltered. There's hope for Quantum Break, there's Hope for Crackdown 3, but frankly those games could be just as huge of duds as The Order or Knack was for PS4.
Xbox is in a state of flux with no definitive direction going forward. It has to be nervous times for those Xbox fans out there. Hopefully MS can sort its self out and remain competitive, for gaming's sake.

Xbox has a direction. It plays games. and good ones at that. The only thing we don't know is any elaboration on upgradeable future of Xbox. That's it. what else is there? So some studios closed during the highest money investment in MS own Ip period. I'm sure E3 will show us what we have to look forward to. We already know we have a great year AAA exclusive wise this year.
I never said I haven't played PS4. And I also owned a PS3 last gen. I have played Uncharted among others. I preferred the game play and adventure of Tomb Raider 2013 over all Uncharted on PS3.
Again that's all opinion.
I can assure you, Forza Horizon 2 is not remotely a sim racer. not even close. Forza 6 is simulation. Horizon 2 is a bumper car arcade fest on multi surfaces racing at 200 mph where its impossible to in real life. FH2 is 100% arcade. Killer Instinct season 2 is 85 meta. Street Fighter 5 77.

Usually people compare games against games. Not games against expansions. It would be more relevant to compare KI season 2 to The Walking Dead season 2 or maybe Better Call Saul season 2.... cause SFV doesnt have a season2.
Also KI Season 2 has reviews from only 6 sites. Killer Instinct base game has 51 reviews, that is more comparable to the 71 reviews of Street Fighter V.
I also consider the 4 reviews in the 50's, troll reviews for the quality of the game also.
Know Xbox is going through a hard time but try to keep things fair in the comparisons.
