Why would Sony announced passing 360? It would be a hollow victory.

They would announce something if they passed up WiiU or if they hit a 10M milestone like 90M.

Exactly.  We are into next gen, anyway.  They MIGHT say something when the PS3 is pulled off shelves, but other than that, they are done with last gen.  Kinda funny to see some people that need to hang onto the 360 remaining in 2nd.

What about the Ps3 will be supported for 4 or more year after the Ps4 comes out talk?
Right now i think the X360 will last longer than Ps3

And to show support and confidence in ur last gen console, u should say something about further sales
But the Ps4 is just to good and cheap for this to happen. I don't see a 99$ Ps3. And if that won't happen, the Ps3 will not reach 100m for sure. Maybe not even 90m
But i know i should wait for this quarter Ps3 shipped figures, before doing such a statement :D


When did Sony said it's done with the PS3?

Just 2 days ago it had a new system update, it's still getting attention and a lot of games.
360 I don't know, but Sony consoles always stay strong some years after the next system is available, and it won't be different now.

PS3 will FOR SURE go over 90M units, and I still believe it will go for 100M (this I can understand if you don't agree with me).
Countries like mine are just going to jump to the past gen right now, you would be surprised by how many people still have (and buy) PS2's here.
PS3 have a big advantage of being free to play online, and while Sony support this it will get a good ground into countries in development.
Having a PS3 is still the target of a huge number of people worldwide, and it obviously will get price cuts when PS4 start doing this too.

Sony have a really solid brand name with PlayStation all over the world, don't doubt the PS3 will keep selling well for some good years.


Dunno. Never. Not until now. Neither me said that.

Over 90m is still 5m to go. And the Ps3 is selling way below 5m a year right now with proably further decline.
So again, unless a big pricecut and huge sales outside of the big gaming markets happen, this 100m goal will not be reached.
A YoY rise for the Ps3 is highly unlikely. And how much support do u think Sony will put on a 3 million a year selling last gen console, while bening in big financial trouble?

The Ps3 is dead in 2 year form now. April 2016 - March 2017 will be last fiscal year, with Ps3 shipments
I'm talking about new hardware sales here. Not completely dead
