I don't think the PS3 can hit middle-high 5 mil consoles by the end of the year....

You're wrong because you're ignoring two things. Holiday sales boost is very big and the PS3 has had 3 exclusives released on it so far in the US in total.

In the next 5 months, it's getting like 13 or so exclusives so games + holidays will boost sales.

Add to that the price cut (even if it is temporary which I don't think it will be) and you got yourself a PS3 that should easily reach 7-8 million worldwide if not more by the end of this year.

Next year definitely looks to be a bigger year for the PS3 with more price cutting and two huge franchises coming in the form of FF XIII and MGS 4. Also, Killzone is going to be pushed by Sony a lot and if it turns out as good as is hoped then that will be a big seller as well, specifically in the US.

 

3 games won't sell 14 mil consoles to catch Wii. Neither will SSBB, SMG, MP3 which will sell better. Those game's sales are dependant on PS3 sales. At least FF is. MGS/Killzone will do well in US and Europe but fail in Japan.

You will be surpised how well Killzone does in Japan and MGS is also generally well recieved in Japan.

Sony can possibly take the US if Killzone2 is BETTER than Halo3 which i have no doubt that it will be in my opinion.The US loves sports and FPS games so Killzone2 will make a massive BANG and sell threw the roof.LBP will make a BANG everywhere and sell tons of consoles if you think it wont youre kidding yourself watch the trailers and stuff its a game aimed at everyone not just kids.
