First of all i was just putting out some suggestions of a proposed scenario that could happen. I wasnt claiming that the 360 will absolutely outsell the ps2 in americas, i was just trying to show you that its not crazy and that it has a chance, even though its a slight chance. Maybe you think this is my prediction or something but its not. I really havnt given the topic much thought. Other than the above post.

Id like to see xbox doin even remotely close to ps2's numbers in its 11th year

i was merely pointing out that the ps2 is in its true final years now, its really not gonna be long before Sony pulls ps2 in americas.

so you think it will sell 5-6 million in next 1.5 months ONLY IN AMERICA ??? That's some serious ddelusion right there

360 is at 33.8 mil atm, i said it could end up with 38 - 39.So that would put the numbers at 4 - 5 this year as a POSSIBILITY, NOT 5 - 6. Maths failure? Again not my prediction but a possible scenario. 4mil is a reasonable amount if MS has some sort of plan.

You can't possibly think that's possible, do you now. 7 million in america only in its 7th year with all the hype about next gen?

Again a rough estimation, but 360 will have another strong year next year thats for sure, unless something drastic happens to slow their momentum.

That's a lot of ''ifs'' and best case scenarios there .Not really much to go on.

Well it was precisely my point to put a best case scenario out ther. After all a best case scenrio is stil a scenario. And obviously im using "ifs" i dont have a FUCKING crystal ball.

PS2 is seriously undertracked here btw

This is silly. I was using vgchartz data.

I believe it is. It is wrong to assume a console can sell almost 100% of its LTD sales in its last years...

Again its not 100% your maths is off again. Lets say 360 ends up with 37 mil at the end of this year. (selling 3 mil from now til end of year). It would need to sell 20mil to pass ps2 (if ps2 is at +57mil). Now lets do the maths. -----does maths calculations in a few seconds cos im not a retard----- It would need to sell 54% of its LTD sales.

Even if we use the exact LTD sales as of this very moment the number is stil not even close to 100%. Its more around the 70% mark.

You need to do two things:

1. learn to do basic math calculations.

2. and ease the fuck up theres really no need for using bold and underlining.

I wasnt even making a prediction! Just saying its not a crazy statement.


Ok, your the one who needs to ''ease the fuck up''

You know, PSP has a ''slight'' chance of outselling PS1, doesn't mean that prediction isnt kinda delusional.

Sony said they're gonna support PS2 as long as it sells aroun the world, and seeing as how ps2 is incredibly cheap to manufacture and how well is it selling in 3rd world countries, it should stay on market for 2-3 more years i would say

Maths failure? LMAO, i only rounded up the numbers, but its funny how you call someone up on something insignificant as that, shows how strong you believe in your arguments.4 million is more possible than 5 or 6 but still highly unlikely.

Strong year? Why? Because 5th or 6th halo will get released? Or price cut on already cheap console that already hit its massive market price? I really fail to see how xbox's next year is gonna be ''strong ''

Best case scenario is rarely the most reasonable one.Doesnt make this prediction much more credible.

Yeah, vgchartz has PS2 seriously undertracked here, and by that i mean undertracked by 20 million last time i checked, they could have fixed it by now, im not sure

I was somehow under the impression xbox was at 29 or 29 million in America, I apologize

need to lear basic math calculations? Alright dude, calm down, I didn't mean to insult you by rounding up the numbers

Wow, you see bold and underlining as some form of agression and you tell me to ease the fuck up? Priceless



Dude, just admit the mistake that you mis-examined the situation and jumped the gun at calling people delusional. That word should really only be used to describe someone who puts full-faith into a nearly-impossible occurrence, not someone who simply acknowledges the possibility of something fairly possible actually happening. The probability may not be too high, but it's certainly not low enough to declare someone delusional for fancying with it's likelihood.
