Technologically the PS4 is the better console and has about 300% larger market share at the moment. After this past week and the obnoxious amount of time it took Sony to recover from the DDoS attack, I'm not sure I'd recommend the console in good conscience. I do own both consoles and I prefer my Playstation in almost every way, but Microsoft clearly has the better infrastructure and the honest truth is that when the network goes down and you can't play any of your games, it doesn't matter how great the console is, just how quickly the company can recover and get you playing again.
