Some of the exclusives interest me (Forza, Dead Rising 3, Ryse, Quantum Break etc.). Are there any other big time exclusives I might be forgetting about?

Just wanted to get some thoughts on the system from those who own one or both consoles. Not sure if its worth owning both or not. I'm thinking I would use the PS4 for all multi platform games and use the Xbox for exclusives.
OneGuide works great with the Shaw HD-PVR. I have it hooked up myself. The guide is accurate, and the IR firing doesn't skip a beat (which is nice because the damn Pace HD-PVR can be finicky about actually accepting number entry with its own remote). Also knows my channel favorites versus my girlfriend's. She can set her favorite channels on her Live profile (which recognizes her and signs her in automatically), and when I go into the OneGuide, it shows mine instead.

Halo - Master Chief Collection and Sunset Overdrive are two of the other titles you might want to keep your eyes open for.
