Last gen, only about 150M consoles were sold total WW.
I think some of these 300M predictions are a bit too high, someone has to loose. I just happen to think the PS3 is going to be the big looser this generation. Thus only a 35M prediction.
Yet, today, America's leaders are reenacting every folly that brought these great powers [Russia, Germany, and Japan] to ruin -- from arrogance and hubris, to assertions of global hegemony, to imperial overstretch, to trumpeting new 'crusades,' to handing out war guarantees to regions and countries where Americans have never fought before. We are piling up the kind of commitments that produced the greatest disasters of the twentieth century.
— Pat Buchanan – A Republic, Not an Empire
