Are those assumptions still around that the HD consoles will somehow defy the odds and maintain perfect market inertia? I never quite got that sort of mindset. They've both been on an overall downward curve for a while now (the 360 especially, the PS3 slightly), and even the most anticipated 'core market game of 2008 couldn't keep them boosted. Seriously, don't expect the 360 to ever even come close to 50 million; it will be lucky to break 30 million, given the slowdown in demand for it. The PS3 is a harder one to spot for certain, since it's not yet hit its peak in Europe and is only now hitting its peak in America, but the 360's peak has come and gone in all 3 regions. It's all a steady downhill ride from here for it, over the next half-decade (or less if MS discontinues it like they did the original XBOX).
Sky Render - Sanity is for the weak.
