I was starting to read your arguement seriously, but openly mocking people is immature and unnecessary. I said it will sell 5 million MINIMUM in 2-3 years till gt6 comes out. The ps3 isnt selling slow, its outpacing the 360 and the wii in japan for the last month. The userbase does come into the equation, why dont you get this? If a game releases on a userbase of 20 miilion and sells 1 million. If it releases on a userbase of 100 million (same reviews,genre etc) it will sell better as one in twenty people would buy it. I do realise the ps2 userbase was at 11 mill when gt3 released, I KEEP SAYING IT HAS LARGE LEGS LIKE GT4 BECAUSE OF THE LARGE USERBASE INCREASE. GT4 had a larger userbase of 74 million already, huge compared to ps3 atm. so sold well, ps2 went on to sellalmost another 60 mill consoles, thats why it sold well to. Less favourable reviews and oversaturation meant it didnt sell as well as GT3, but thats not part of MY arguement. ps3 probably wont sell 45 mill in the next 3 and a bit years. It wont have the same userbase or even similar to ps2's, gt won;t sell huge ps2numbers, but it wil make a profit, it won't sell 5 mill in first 2 months.

Well so is insulting people but you didnt seem to mind being immature there.
If the PS3 is outpacing the 360 how come the gap has gotten bigger since the launch of the PS3 instead of smaller? Sure the last month or so it has because of the slim but not before then and it still hasnt caught up to the original gap. And its not outpacing the Wii in Japan, they launched at the same time and the Wii has almost double the consoles sold in Japan.
So, all you are trying to argue then is the PS3 will not go through a significant increase in userbases. So I have a question for you, what is the PS3 going to sell over the next 4 years on a year to year basis? Sony is forcasting about 13M a year. Because at that rate it will hit the 78M after 4 years.
