Well, I must be a girl then, because I love my XBox. I bought both a PS3 and XBOX360 about four years ago, specifically to play the "exclusives". I played all three Unchartered games and hated all three (very repetitive), got all three Killzones and liked the first one, didn't like the next two. At the same time, I got all the Halo games for XBOX360, didn't like it and never got more than 10% into any of them. I got all three Gears of War and liked them but so far only played halfway through the first one. I liked the look and feel of Forza much more than Gran Turismo and spent many enjoyable hours with Forza.
But I actually ended up playing more mainstream games on my Xbox360 than "exclusives", especially games like Mass Effect, Assassin's Creed and Tomb Raider, which I didn't enjoy playing on PC with mouse and keyboard. I found the PS3 controller too small for my average-sized male hands, whereas the Xbox controller felt just right. More importantly, I hated the menus, interface and webstore of the PS3. Everything was slower, clumsier and more complicated than that of the Xbox, which was sleek and fast by comparison. At the time, free games from XBLive Gold could be kept forever, whereas on the PS3 you lost them if you didn't continue subscribing. That all changed now with the Xbox One which really pisses me off, but PS4 is the same.
Bottom line is that I have sold my PS3, kept the Xbox 360 and also recently bought an Xbox One which I absolutely love. And it has nothing to do with "exclusives". I couldn't care less about exclusives because I found that they are overrated and over-hyped, especially for the Playstation. 90% of the so-called PS4 exclusives are utter crap or Japanese anime girlie stuff. As far as I'm concerned, you don't buy a console for the exclusives. You buy it because most games nowadays are optimised and standardised for console and controller play. You also buy it because it is a very sociable way to play games, especially if you play couch co-op or online with friends etc. I still play on PC as well and love it to bits, mainly for flight sims and FPS, but some games are just so much better on console and for that I prefer my XBOX. Stuff the exclusives, who cares.
