Part 3 will see sales at about the same level.

Putting the PS3 at about 13M in sales for 2010.

You forgot

Part 3.1 - GT5 is released, all past sales numbers go out the window.

Part 3.2 - With its release, significant majority of European HD console sales are PS3s.

 

If its released in Oct/Nov GT5 will effectivly kill holiday 360 sales in Europe.  I stand by this and always have. 

 


Sorry I just dont think 1 game will push that much hardware.  First off already 40 million PS3s will already have been sold and a great deal of GT fans will have purchased a PS3 because they are also huge PS3 fans. Second with some 4 million GT5P sales already a bunch of those purchasers will be GT5 purchasers and wont purchase a new PS3 for GT5.

 

@TheNoobHolocaust,

So you think the PS3 will still be selling 3-4 years after the Wii and 360. That is delusional.  If the 360 is truly at 70M when the PS3 is at 74M no way MS discontinues the 360. In fact MS wont discontinue selling the 360 as long as it is profitable. They stopped selling the Xbox because it was never going to be profitable.

do you live in europe? in europe Gran turismo is huge, i dont think you realise just how huge it is. its like halos dad in europe and 40 million ps3's is fuck all, theres millions of more people than want a ps3. on top of that the playstation brand name is extremely strong in europe.
