The ps2 has lasted nearly 8 years now.

 Yeah and GCN and xbox did not, PS3 is not in the position that PS2 was, its in the Xbox GCN position


That has yet to be determined since I dont expect for sony to release another console till at least 2013. And to the point , even if it does not last 8 years, lets say 5, you are saying it will sell 6 million a year. and then end in at around 40 million, like I said, you are kinda lost!


 Actually dude your math is totally wrong, its been on the market for about 14 months and has sold 9.6 million, that means last year it sold 8.22 million, now we know trends indicate that for most consoles its first three years it trends up in NA and then declines, two for Japan, so in the next few years we can expect it to probably rise and then start to decline, even below last years figures so yeah on average it will sell under 8 million for the next four years
