re: Need a console upgrade: Xbox or PS?

If PUBG is important to you I can say this, PUBG seems to be bigger on Xbox than PS. Probably because it was out way longer on Xbox before coming to PS. By the time PS was able to play the skill gap between new and seasoned was great, which probably led to a lot of frustration and less PS people sticking with it. There also seems to be a stigma against PS players in duos/squads, which again I think goes back to the skill gap when PS players first came on board (they were trash) and the fact they can't join parties. Which leads into the next point, PS players can't join Xbox parties. If you are going to be playing Duos/Squads and because the player base seems to skew heavily Xbox, you'll probably want to be on Xbox for the party ability alone. You are going to want to find some regular teammates and game chat with randoms is kinda dead. I say all this as an Xbox PUBGer so my observations may be skewed by me being on that platform, or the above may be the way things actually are.
