While this is totally subjective, this is not what you write in the beginning.

This really isn't subjective though. PS4 objectively has a much bigger exclusive library.

You can argue that PS4 has a lot of shovelware, but even if we discount the crap and just look at PS4/XB1 exclsuives which have a "good" metascore (which metacritic defines as games with a 75+ rating) there's no contest, see for yourself...

I'll even break them up in seperate categories for those who're going to differentiate between what type of exclsuive it is, and those who don't consider indies to be real games.

There's no way anyone can call this a subjective matter at this point. It's pretty clear cut that XB1 library is insignificant next to the PS4's.

And I'm surely missing a couple dozen for the upcoming PS4 list here.

To be honest I don't think the average gamer in Europe/North America really gives that much of a shit about those games aside from the real heavy hitter Sony IP like Uncharted and Last of Us and what not. 

But MS has Halo and Forza and others themselves. 

Most people just want the third party goodies, and MS has all of those more or less.
