The 360 at the end of 2008 will have at the very most 23 million sold.
I know that people will bring up GTAIV, and even though it will move consoles, it's not going to push the 360 anywhere near 30 million, especially considering that it's also on the PS3. Gears Of War was a system seller, and at the end of 2006, the 360 had only sold around 8 million. Halo 3 is undoubtedly a system seller, and at the end of this year, 15 million 360's will be sold at the most. It takes more than just one game to drive sales completely off the chart. It takes a lot of titles that appeal to everyone to do this, and the 360 doesn't have this for next year, nor does it even have an exclusive title that's as big as Halo 3. With Halo 3, it will have sold 7-8 million units for the calendar year of 2007, so to suggest that it's going to much more than that without something that big is absurd. Not to mention that the 360 appeals almost exclusively to the core gamer and the hardcore gamer and not the general public and only sells moderately well in N. America while selling poorly in Europe and nothing Japan.
