CLW, I appreciate the objective answer.

It doesn't seem like either system has that many exclusive titles, so there isn't a roadblock there either for which way to "go". Although if budget could swing it, I'd like both, but not really worth it with so many shared titles.

Better memory / 50% more power (DDR5 v. DDR3)
I saw that posted and the theoretical gains but it would be interesting to see if that actually amounted to drastic difference. The graphical gains to the user isn't linear for the power increase, but perhaps the PS4 lives longer?
Not being a PC gamer anymore, specs don't always impress me, but I'm curious why PS4 doesn't offer the streaming gateway that XB1 does? Would love to get my Netflix and such through it.

$100 lower price point
Yeah. $100 is "nothing" to me, so not a big deal there. $100 buys me all the TV, streaming, Skype capability which I actually have use for since I don't subscribe to cable or satellite anymore. All internet, baby!

DRM / Sharing / Used / Rentals
Yes, the used game thing sucks. I don't like that since I buy most games used on Ebay for cheap these days. But I don't play at friends' houses, I don't carry my system anyway, I play mainly single-player stuff anyway these days.........I don't rent games either. Sometimes share games with a friend, but no more than a couple a year.........
Plus isn't M$ giving away free full games to Gold subscribers?
Both cost money to access all of their online stuff.

No Kinect / Big Brother / "Privacy" Issues
That stuff can be turned off, so what is the problem?
Hell, all of our browsers, FB, etc. are "watching" what we surf now and tailoring ads as we surf, so.............

I had multiple PS and PS2 back in the day, but didn't go PS3 route......just trying to understand what saving $100 if I went the PS4 route "gains" me versus what the XB1 does.
