I don't see the PS3 hitting 30 million at the end of next year unless it gets a $100 price drop in the summer. Most likely it'll hit 28mil by the end of 2009. Because of the Xbox 360's price cut, it could easily sell about 10mil + in 2009. Pushing it's total to 37+ million by the end of 2009. If the Wii keeps up it's pace it'll be at 67 million by the end of next year. Sony and Microsoft will never catch them if that happens. If Microsoft beats the PS3 in another holiday, it will be tough for the PS3 to catch them. It's all about the games though. If Microsoft can acquire some more exclusive hits like Gears of War and FF XIII, their console will continue to sell like hotcakes.
