I like the exclusives on Xbox a lot better than on Playstation - if NIS decides to make all their RPGs multi-plat this gen, there will literally be no reason for me to ever buy a PS4.
This is literally the only reason to get one. Fanboyism aside, there is just plain better hardware out there.
Sure the price drop helps, but what about the fanatic fans that already paid way more? It's like M$ is saying, "Thanks for the support guys, but screw you anyway."
I will give them credit for dropping the pay wall on Netflix and stuff though. I can absolutely not believe it took them this long to do it. Seeing the numbers go in Sony's favor must have lit a candle under the M$ exec's asses.
As for the NIS titles, I wouldn't bet on it. Sony has the JRPG genre on lock. It's been like that since the PS1.
One thing I will say though is this: If M$ "loses" this generation (whatever that means) and another generation comes along (which may not happen) they will be damn sure not to "lose" again. My guess is that they'll make something so powerful and absurdly cheap, that Sony nor Nintendo can compete. It seems like the M$ way. Sure, they may tack on a bunch of stuff that isn't popular, like always on internet etc, but we already know that they'll listen to the fan base and backtrack that stuff. I think this generation is a wash for them. But they won't let it slip again.
