How can you possibly think the PS3 will pass X360 next year? There's optimism and then there's just plain stupidity. Let's assume the 360 sells only 6 million next year like you anticipate and gets to 22 million, which is completely ridiculous seeing as it sold close to 8 million this year and Microsoft has far more room for price cuts next year.
Even if that were true and the PS3 would sell 14 million next year as you hope you honestly expect it to outsell the 360 by 8 million units next year? 8 million units over 52 weeks means the PS3 has to beat the 360 by an average of 150,000 units a week. Last year the PS3 sold over 150,000 15 weeks out of the entire year and you expect it to not only match the 360 but outsell it by 150,000?
And this isn't just to call you out ssj12, i've seen numerous people insinuate the PS3 gets to 2nd place in '08 including KBG29 in this topic and Crazzyman everywhere before he was banned. I simply can't understand the reasoning behind it so please explain because from the numbers i've listed above the PS3 has no chance of catching up till at least 2009.
Anyway my own predictions are in my sig, the Wii one in particular i know i'm probably overestimating anticipating an increase in production and continued demand due to WiiFit and Smash Bros. It could definitely end up selling less but I once thought approaching 20 million was crazy before spring '08 and I don't want to underestimate them again.
