It all comes down to what type of game you like. PS3 has most of the good JRPGs but has a pretty poor controller for playing shooters (not sure if this is just me or not ) I own both, simply because PS3 has the epic story driven fantasy games and Xbox had the fast paced shooters. On the off-topic note that was brought up about next-gen, I bought a Xbox One and am reasonably happy with it (it just needs more games), I heard there were some issues with the PS4 at launch, has anyone experienced these? And also more importantly, how are the exclusives?
