Yes. PS3 will sell between 110 and 120 million... my bet is near 115 million lifetime.

Thats basically 4-5 years worth of PS3 sales......not taking into account sales declines and next Xbox/PS4 taking the wind out of it.

I cant take your predictions seriously :P

So you're telling ppl, that after microsoft and sony announce a nexgen system.. ps3 sales are just going to drop like a rock.. you realize the ps3 has yet to receive it's big mass market price point..

$199 or less

once it reaches that price range world wide sales will sustain themselves.. or even sky rocket..

history has taught the industry.. that unlike XBOX and NINTENDO.. PLAYSTATION doesn't just go poof after a nexgen system is announced or launched.. the PS2 did end up outselling most of the systems that came a generation after it.. for years

Its mass market priced in Europe with that tiny gig PS3 right?

It wont drop like a rock....but itll slow. When They actually release itll slow even more. When Xbox and PS4 gain momentum, PS3 will slow a little more then too. Get it?

PS3 is different from PS2 and you know it.

You're right.. it's very different..

The ps3 7 years into it's life is getting bigger and better ip than the PS2 ever did this stage in it's life.. and is still priced at a much higher price point than it's competition..

oh and it has blu ray.. a growing medium in disc media.. growing consistently on a yearly basis by the way.. unlike DVD that erupted quickly and was quickly mimiced by microsoft

and the Wii U is only extending the ps3's life..  only thing that'll slow it down is yes an announcement of a new xbox/playstation.. but if it drops to $199 it'll sustain itself at least(and now the 12GB model isn't available in all of EUROPE.. and isn't $199)
