Remember, we're supposed to be fluffy. This topic is negative and borders on trolling. It's fine to not like PlayStation. I don't like PlayStation either. However, we could be more constructive in our discussion of dislike for PlayStation. We could explain why we dislike PlayStation. Of course, we also need to accept that people do love their PlayStations, even if we don't.
For example, a big reason I favor Xbox over PlayStation is the controller. After many iterations of their controllers, Sony refuses to fix certain elements of daft design. On PlayStation 3 I hated the convex curvature of the triggers, which were the opposite of all other triggers on anything that ever had a trigger. There's good reasons for them being concave and they always should be. Their controllers never felt good in my hands, like they're not meant for humans. Xbox controllers, except maybe the original, feel custom-molded to my hands. The near-universal standard for buttons is to name them letters but Sony went with random shapes, and I could do a few paragraphs on that alone. The left stick placement is awkward and illogical, which again requires a few paragraphs to explain.
Sony never really innovates. They just see what the other guys do and then they do it. They never had any business being king of console sales.
I like race and Xbox has Forza, which has been the benchmark for console racing from Xbox 360 to date, and Forza has seen much more frequent releases than PlayStation's Gran Turismo. There's things I like about GT but there's been a lot very wrong with it. Both consoles have third-party racing games, but Xbox also has Forza.
I love Bethesda games, and I've logged more hours into their franchises than almost any other, with the exception of but a handful. Their games will now be on Xbox and anywhere but PlayStation. That's now a huge deal for me.
Edit: I see that you haven't registered here. Maybe you could register and stick around.

I'm not sure if guests should be allowed to post. It wouldn't be so bad if we could guarantee the posts wouldn't be bad, but I'm afraid it's only a matter of time.

I like Playstation. I admit it would be cool for Forza to be on Playstation. Those standard cars in GT 5 looked like doodie. Forza has been sweet for a long time.

I played GT5 pretty extensively. I did everything except the endurance races longer than four hours. 20% of the cars were built for GT5 for PS3 and looked great for the time but the other 80% were copy-pasted as-is from older games on older hardware and it shown. The same was true for the tracks. Newly modeled tracks looked great but Laguna Seca did not and Trial Mountain felt like I was on the original PlayStation.

I posted about Forza Motorsport a while ago and I was looking for a trailer to include in the post. While getting that link, of course a lot of other videos came up, including comparisons to Gran Turismo 7. I watched some a bit ago.
If I owned a PS5 I'm sure I'd have got GT7. I know it still suffers many of the same disappointments that the series has suffered for many years, and I know those disappointments will hold it back, keeping it from being a masterpiece. It does look good, though, which is something Polyphony Digital have always excelled at..., when they're not copy-pasting outdated models like they did for 80% of GT5.
