Currently have xbox 360. Have had a PlayStation in the past. Play mostly sports and shooter games. Leaning ps4 for the vue function.
Pros and cons of each?

if you are attached to vue then go ps4 as you can't get it at all on xbox.

Not attached but would like to eventually get away from direct tv. I’m just addicted to the dvr.
What’s difference between s and x?

The One X boasts a custom-built eight-core CPU, with each core clocked at 2.3GHz. That's miles ahead of the 1.75GHz CPU in the One S.
That's backed up by the biggest improvement, the GPU: a custom AMD chip that boasts 40 compute units each running at 1172MHz - a huge upgrade on the 12 compute units running at 914MHz in the Xbox One S (itself a small upgrade on the original Xbox One).
Elsewhere, the One X has 12GB of GDDR5 RAM, compared to 8GB of slower DDR3 RAM in the One S, and a memory bandwidth of 326GB/s, up from 219GB/s supported by ESRAM in the One S.
Finally, the One X comes with a 1TB hard drive as default, while the One S offers a choice between 500GB and 1TB. Both consoles come with a 4K UHD Blu-ray drive, a universal benefit when compared to Sony's console offerings.
The end result of all that power is that the One X runs games with better graphics, at higher resolutions, and with better framerates, with the aim to hit 4K graphics at 60fps for the majority of titles - something the One S just can't handle.
It's worth bearing in mind though that you won't really be able to take full advantage of that horsepower unless you have a 4K TV to play it on. If your TV is just HD you'll enjoy better framerates, but won't make the most of the new resolutions, which will severely limit the benefit of the extra power.
The other point worth mentioning is that the beefed up specs could allow superior support for virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR). We know Microsoft is working in both areas, especially AR with its HoloLens tech, but we don't yet know what plans it has for Xbox - but it's a safe bet that whatever they are, they'll run better on the One X, and may not be compatible with the One S at all.

I made this same move and I regret it when I'm playing games. I very much enjoy the decision however when I'm watching 4K content. Overall it just depends on what you want out of your gaming system.

Whichever your friends play. If no friends and money is no object then get a One X. If you don't have the cash for that I prefer the PS4 to the Xbox and I own both. Only reason I have an Xbox is my IRL friends play on it

Playstation's list of exclusives is so much better than Xbox's it's no wonder that they're absolutely slaughtering them
