Sky Render on 23 February 2008
The PS2 slowdown is well underway, and it's going to keep working its way down in sales as the system continues to lose its exclusives to newer systems. The drops should, following the trends of its predecessors, result in ever-smaller sales for the next 2 years, basically dropping off the map by the end of 2010. 2006 was the system's last "big" year, it's not hard to see that comparing 2006 to 2007 software- and hardware-wise. As for how that will translate numerically, I would expect the PS2 to sell around 10 to 12 million more; about 5 to 6 million this year, around 2 to 3 million next, and the remaining millions over the course of the years until Sony discontinues the PS2.
Sky Render - Sanity is for the weak.
