It really is. But then I tried to play Fable The Journey using only the Kinect and I about threw the damn system out the window. I hate that fucking thing!

I don't care about much about consoles, I prefer PC gaming any day over shitty consoles, but my favorite horror game, fatal frame, is on PS, so given the choices I'd side with PS.

I suppose that's a matter of preference as I've found every iteration of the PlayStation controller to be too small and too light.

The last console I had was an N64 (and very briefly a Wii... not my thing at all... a console should be about being lazy ) and they had very comfortable, ergonomic controllers but I can't use a playstation controller for more than a few minutes without getting RSI I think they're very badly designed. So as much as I'd like to try having another console, and one that has 'lazy' controllers like the good old days, playstation feels out for me. I've never tried an xbox but it seems to me that, being Microsoft, it would essentially be a PC (except in a prettier box and lacking the other stuff pcs can do) ... the same sort of tech... so that's not particularly appealing either because I've already got a PC. So if there were better controllers, I think I'd go for a playstation out of those two.

It's what I'm used to.

I've owned only a PS2 and Xbox 360. I played the 360 a lot more, so I'll go with Xbox. I don't really care either way though

Why didn't you bother upgrading to the Xbox One? It's not perfect, but it's an improvement over the 360 in my opinion.

Personally, I have both - at least in terms of what I play, the Xbox One is only a marginal improvement over the Xbox 360. I wouldn't have bought the Xbone if Fallout 4 had been released on the 360. However, now that practically every 360 game I am interested in playing has been ported to the One, or is about to be (TES5), the 360 is soon to be a bookend along with my PS2 and PS3.

I stopped gaming a few years ago. I haven't even turned on the 360 in that time. So I figured it'd be a waste of money.

I thought the 360 controller was just about perfect. The XB1 controller somehow screws it up. The material on the sticks digs into my thumbs, and the shoulder buttons suck. I've heard they made the shoulder buttons better, but I'm not going to pay $50+ to check it out.
I became a PS guy because, back in the day, that's the console Final Fantasy jumped to after the SNES days. I stuck around for Tekken and Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, and then considered it my console after it was obvious that Nintendo wasn't going in a direction I liked.
SotN has some amazing music, BTW. I'm so happy that Bloodstained will have the same composer.
