I don't think anyone argued that "the amount of exclusives" was a reason to buy the Xbox.Not only is this patently false, who cares? The question is whether the PS4 library is bigger than the Xbox ones. It is no ifs or buts.
I don't understand why this is such a point of contention. There are plenty reasons to buy a Xbox one over a PS4. The amount of exclusives is not one of them. Simple.
You arguing against yourself with that one
What was said is the the exclusive situation between both isn't enough to overcome the overall advantages of the Xbox.
The most popular games are multiplatform and either system has a couple very popular games that are not on the other system.
All the "exclusives" beyond that are niche games and don't move the needle either way unless you like that specific type of game.
