Not sure how often we have to tell you guys...PUBG is NOT console exclusive! Only the game preview version is.

Review or not, it's a game people pay for and it's currently only on one console. And it has drawn couple of million in just a couple weeks. 

They might as well keep it Exclusive to Microsoft. Don't really think any other consoles want it.

Every time my left hand argues with my right hand it always loses and acknowledges that my right hand is never wrong...

What do you guys think how many of the x buyers already owned a xbone? I think its like 90% ... There wont be a big sales bump software wise
Xbox fans were very desperated so i think most of x customers already had a xbone.

Tell that to the 2-3 million paying customers that bought this game in the last couple of weeks.

That's how I see it. This game is best played on PC. If MS wants it that bad, let 'em have it. They're going to spend the rest of the year trying to fit a square peg into a round hole and the game will look lesser for it.

The hardcore Xbox One fans will undoubtedly upgrade, just like the hardcore PS4 fans upgraded to Pro. But that is likely to be a very small percentage. Assuming there are around 30million Xbox One owners, 90% upgrade would mean selling 27million Xbox One X, that isn't happening. It likely to be around 10% at most. So 2-3 million existing Xbox One owners are likely to upgrade.

My prediction remains the same. After some initial good sales of the X1X in November/December, PS4 and PS4 Pro combined will continue to outsell X1X and Xbox One combined for the foreseeable future. NPD already showed that PS4/Pro outsold X1/X in the US alone, even though Microsoft launched before the Black Friday weekend. By March 2018, PS4/Pro will consistently outsell X1/X at a rate of 3:1 and above world wide, each month thereafter. With PS4/Pro hitting 100million (maybe more) total units by December 2018. Then in 2019, as PS4/Pro approaches 120million and X1/X goes close to 45million(maybe 50mill, but I doubt it) world wide, we'll see Microsoft bow out of the console market and focus on the Xbox branded PC. 

Good to see the analysts are starting to agree with my 100million PS4/Pro prediction :p - http://www.vgchartz.com/article/270934/analyst-ps4-to-sell-100m-units-by-2019-ps5-and-next-xbox-likely-coming-2021/

I think they're huffing glue if they don't think we'll see a new PS4 and Xbox before 2021.

I don't see a playstation or nintendo version and whose to say Microsoft won't purchase the ip and keep it exclusive permanently?

They already tried. Bluehole wisely said no. Why would they want to stay on the worst selling and pass on the by far highest selling system?! It was a timed deal from day one.

Source to back up your claim? Also, money talks bullshit walks. Gears could’ve been on ps4, but Microsoft stepped in and bought the ip. Same with Minecraft even though the developer didn’t want to sell it.
