I'm expecting 95m though, which would be:

10 this year
6.5 next year
3.5 next
2 next
1 next

So you agree? 100m is impossbile for the PS3.

Keep in mind that consoles are usually discontinued when they only sell 1-3m units a year.

Kind of, except I don't think it's impossible for PS3 to do it. PS2 has sold 40-50m since PS3 was released. Now look at this graph I stole from Michael-5's thread:

Look at the blue PS3 line. If PS3 can keep this up and follow a similar pattern to PS2 it can sell 30m+ easily from here. However, I expect it to drop a bit more harshly so 20-25m will be the likely outcome

PS2 has had a real long life.
