PS3 on course for 9M by the end of the year.

I don't think it will quite reach 9m, but it will be close...but probably closer to 8.5m.

Anyway, for all the negativity surrounding the PS3, it certainly is doing much better now and seeing as it's only been on the European market for 9 months and it's first Euro Xmas and compare the first year sales to that of the 360, the PS3 should have sold more.

Also, the PS3 needs to have a good 2008 and I reckon it will have, so this is where the ground will be made up between the 360 and PS3 sales.

Remember the 360 only moved 2.5m consoles from 1st Jan - 1st July 2007 and had a total of 10.5m consoles sold by 1st July 2007. I can see the PS3 easily beating the number over the next 6 months.
