There is no chance that it will reach 100 million. It might even finish behind the 360. It will not get over 65 million in a best-case scenario. That would be the strongest finish a non-winning console has ever had. I don't understand why people are predicting such huge growth.

 Evidence?

 Technically speaking the PS2 and PS3 are on the same team, they are brothers, so if the PS2 had so much success theres a large chance many of those PS2 owners will want to enter the HD age, and go from their PS2 to a PS3, so if anything the PS3 should do much better than the PS2, as that is the current trend (PS1 < PS2 < PS3).

You, and most others, dont seem to realize that the PS3 has 3 things going for it.
1. Large PS2 fan base.
2. Blu-ray.
3. (soon to be/beginning to come true) Best looking games  

PS3 seems to have had the toughest first year out of any console(highest price, poor game line-up, competition), and it still made it through with identical sales to the PS2/360's first years. So why do people think it'd be so hard for it to get to 100 million when it should start taking off with mass adoption by PS2 owners.
