This generation it appears that the PS4 is the stronger hardware and is easier to develop for.
It will be interesting to see how this goes but the story isn't the same as last generation.
In terms of games Sony has had the best exclusives for the last 3 generations (outside of the regular Nintendo games) and I really don't see that changing due to their broad first party network.
XBox will have to hope that their positioning as a "Media Entertainment Center" opposed to a traditional gaming system pays off in attracting the casual market because that really is there key advantage this generation.
I will have both systems on Friday and will post my general impressions.

I love how people keep spewing this as if it's a fact. If that were the case people wouldn't be buying MS systems for Halo, GoW, Forza etc. How do you judge best exclusives? Is it by sales figures? The best selling PS3 exclusive was GT5 which moved 10.59 units. Halo 3 moved 11.8. After that you have Uncharted 2 (6.24 million units). Halo Reach, Halo 4 and Gears of War 2 all sold more units than that. A lot of Sony's best PS2 exclusive brands became multiplatform last gen.
