I vividly recall the console war between the PS3 and Xbox 360 when I argued the PS3 was technically superior and was shouted down by Microsoft fans. While the PS3 made a ton of money for Sony, it didn't sell as well as the Xbox 360, in part because the best game developers didn't take full advantage of the PS3 hardware and in part because Sony's online service wasn't as friendly to the users. Then, of course, there was Halo which helped Xbox quite a bit.
So, now the console war is about to start again between the PS4 and the Xbox One. According to one game store the PS4 for preselling significantly better than the Xbox One.

Is this a sign that Sony got it right and Microsoft missed the mark. This time I actually prefer the Xbox approach to utilizing cloud computing power to improve the performance of the home hardware, but that requires and always on low latency (high speed) internet connection.
Neither console is leaps and bounds higher performing than the previous generation, so it boils down to cost, content, online, and users.
