You say the predictions are overly optimistic yet your estimations are very close to the given range.
Current + Your estimates for the rest of the year
PS4 : 7.2 + 6 to 8 = 13.2 to 15.2 (the estimate is 15.3 to 17.5)
XB1 : 4.4 + 2 to 3 = 6.4 to 7.4 (the estimate is 8.1 to 10.5)
add them some Xmas boost, and you're right within the range! Again do not necessarily read it like the upper bound, on the contrary the lowerbound (15.3 for PS4 and 8.1 for XB1) is also as likely. Just pick whichever makes sense to you.
