Why PS4 is more family friendly then the Xbox one

So the PS4 and Xbox one is just around the corner, and articles around the internet saying that your mum and dad will get an Xbox one over a PS4 because its more family friendly, and of cause I disagree with this!

So the Xbox one can link with your cable box, yes the Xbox one can get skype and put swag on the side of your game, but heres why the PS4 is more family friendly then the Xbox one in my opinion!

Games: People get a console for games, extraordinary isn't it, Sony put gaming first while Microsoft put TV first, but Microsoft did get some adult games, but whats this media device missing to make it family friendly?
Family friendly games!
lets look exclusives
PS4 has Knack, Fez, Flow, Flower, Galak-Z, Hohokum, Resogun, Rime and The Room
Xbox One has Powerstar Golf, LocoCycle!

Kinect included W/ XBO: So the Xbox comes with the Kinect which you don't have to keep plugged into the console, but before you download the patch, its possibly still forced and thus parents may feel intimidated, and feel like they have to use the kinect, the kinect will also confuse users and cause annoyance, people wont know how to use the kinect, and it would be difficult to get used to, people would also get scared of using it and intimidated by it always there.. always watching...
Lets not forget the price which segways into our next point

Price: The Xbox one is £430, while the PS4 is £350, not only that, if you're not planning on playing games online then you dont have to play anything on the PS4 to use netflix, and other online things, where as with Xbox One you have to buy the gold accounts to access features like Netflix!

So lets go to this strange world where you're buying a PS4 or Xbox one for netflix
Ps4 would cost £350 + £72 = £422 - £72 PY
the XBO would cost £430 + £72 + £33 = £535 - £105 PY
