It's not severely lacking in software. Many of the marquee "AAA" games are available on both PS4 and XOne. Grand Theft Auto, Far Cry, Assassin's Creed, FIFA, Call of Duty, Madden, Battlefront, Battlefield, Shadow of Mordor, Final Fantasy, Resident Evil, etc. PS4 has more noteworthy exclusive games, sure, but let's not pretend the Xbox ecosystem is barren.

And maybe people really want to play those high-profile games in 4K, and maybe they like having three generations of Xbox titles playable on one platform.

I just think we should be a little more accommodating to folks who genuinely prefer Xbox. Being in a minority doesn't make them wrong.

But those games are also on PS4. That's the question. PS4 has all of those games and more. And it will always have more, because for some reason some third party developers prefer PS4 and because Sony has more studios. I think it's fair that some people want to stick with the Xbox One for the "best version" of those high profile third party games and games from years ago, but why pretend the Xbox One is the best console when it all comes down to games at the end of the day and there are some experiences you just can't have with Xbox? I just want them to start making amazing games and stop reliying on EA and Activision, because I don't want EA and Activision anymore, not even for free.

And I agree. PS4 is better than Xbox One. It gets better indies, more Japanese AA support, and its internally-developed games are, on average, superior. 

For some people, though, our reasons for preferring Sony or Nintendo might not not mean much. Perhaps they like the Xbox community or the achievements or the online-multiplayer-focused titles. Maybe backward compatibility is a big deal. Maybe Game Pass is a big deal.

I just want people to stop making others feel bad about their gaming tastes, and to stop proselytizing. For one side to "win," the other side doesn't necessarily have to "lose."
