Vista has a lot of stuff XP does not, such as a half decent automatic backup system, even if it doesn't have much flexibility. Other things I quite like are the improved Windows menu, integrated Windows Update (and Microsoft Update if you opt-in to that) and superior reliability compared to XP in my personal experience.

I guess if you don't actually make use of the new features then no, Vista has nothing XP does not offer you. But, in the same way of thinking, does XP offer you anything that Windows 2000 didn't?

EDIT: And as for the FPS in games thing, I find Vista actually has a higher FPS in a lot of games than XP ever did. At launch Vista wasn't very good for gaming, but with all the updates since then it is on par with, if not better than, XP.
