thx1139 said: Hard to believe that the PS3 will sell nearly 7 million consoles from Sept through the end of the year. Looking back to 2007; last time the PS3 got a $100 cut and a non recession year, the PS3 sold about 4.5 million that year while the 360 did about 4.8 million. Last year the PS3 did less than 4.4 million and the 360 did 6.4 million. The jump to nearly 7 million seems really unrealistic. |
It seems unrealistic, but it isn't unrealistic. Last years numbers were actually 4.5 mill PS3s and 6.6 mill X360s = 11.1 million. My prediction has them combined 12.4 million this year (Sept-Dec) - thats only lil over a 1 million increase. Member that last year PS3 had no price cut, so therefore I believe the HD consoles will sell sell better this Holiday season. The recession has very little negative effect on the sales.
