Well... its 4th year looks to be stronger than its 3rd.

It sold 53,4m in 3years.

Pretty sure next year it ll do 18-18.5m.  (end of next year it will be around 72m sold)

Its hard to say what happends in 2018,2019,2020, before the Playstation 5 launches, however ".Drop. Like. A. Rock." isnt what I expect.

It depends on what sales look like if Sony can sell it at 149$, I guess? stilll I can see it doing 110m+ lifetime, unless something goes wrong.

Sarcasm is hard on the internet...

I don't expect it to drop like a rock and I never suggested as much, but this user seems to have somehow conjured up that opinion on my behalf.

That said; when the next generation starts, I expect a really sharp decline in hardware sales, certainly a lot more abrubt that the PS3 and Xbox 360.

lol after this year it will only need to sell around 30 million units to pass ps1 and you're expecting it to not do that, so i don't know what you think dropping like a rock looks like, but not being able to sell 30 million more units, ever, after this year is what dropping like a rock looks like to me
