Not until the second half of 2010.

It will be impossible for PS3 to overturn a 6.5 million + defecit in 2009 I'm afraid guys, that would mean selling probably twice as much week on week worldwide which i don't see happening...

So you see the 360 selling 7M or less next year then? That's a pretty odd thing to say, as it is likely to sell 11M this year, or at least 10.

And you see the 360 getting a 6.5M + lead over Ps3? That would mean the 360 outselling the Ps3 by almost a million in the last 10 weeks.

That's very different from what other people have predicted here:  http://www.vgchartz.com/forum/thread.php?id=47529&start=0 , so maybe you could put your prediction there.

 

Edit: Holy crud, didn't see who I quoted

 

 

I think ioi may have typo'd the 6.5 number, either that or he knows something we don't =P

But the 6.5M aren't the least likely thing in his post. The Ps3 could outsell the 360 by 1M this holiday. What's odd is this

"that would mean selling probably twice as much week on week worldwide which i don't see happening..."

That says that the Ps3 needs to sell double of 360 weekly in 09. As the Ps3 needs to win by 6.5M (or lower, if it is a typo), the 360 should just sell 6.5M in 09, which is not going to happen.

I'm guessing it is more than a typo, and that he just wasn't paying attention to what he wrote.
