lol at slimebeast.

I think it will be closer next gen, but I don't know which will be higher. If X720 releases a year or two earlier then PS4 may not catch up.

Yeah its already doing a lot better in Japan, and moderately better in Europe. i'm guessing it will shoot past when they cut the price to something more competitive. not sure about the US, it should be able to meet the 360 a bit better in the US when the price gets a bit cheaper.

but worldwide, its going to shoot past - if they cut the price.

they dont even need to cut the price when they're already the top selling home console worldwide each week. so Sony might not even want to cut the price this year.

i think this thread is pretty much pointless.  if we have learned anything at all it is that subsequent generation software sales do not depend on its predecessor.  example.  we all know how poorly the gamecube did last gen, but this gen the wii has become the king of software.   likewise for the ps2 and ps3.  the ps2 had the highest software last gen and now ps3 is in last of the 3 consoles.  not only that, we know next to no information about the next gen consoles, or even if they will be consoles.  they could be some new type of device none of us even know.

Maybe, we will see.

Wow. This is kind of early don't you think? Anyways, I bet the 4ds will have higher software sales than either, so Nintendo wins.

Xbox would be dead right now if it didn't have halo sell that well on Xbox. Gamecube didn't have that bad software sales it's just that the system was complete crap. That's why it didn't sell. The ps2 was cheap it had a GTA come out every one or two years. And GT3 was a launch title. PS3 started with new series of games and was very expensive when it came out. But today it is outselling the Wii and 360 by not a small margin. And what's so pointless in predicting? 

If Halo reach doesn't come in the top 10 according to npd it is definetly overtracked.

I am not sure if the intent of this thread is to troll, with neither of the system even being announced yet, especially lack of launch line up, I really don't see what's the point of it. I really don't, maybe someone can explain? I don't think that in 10 years time someone can take pride in predicting which will sell more SW, because quite frankly, it's all down to chance.

Gears 3 isn't gonna get more than 8- 8.5 million.

Aren't Forza and Fable growing franchises and Motorstorm and Resistance dying ones... see I can also cherrypick...
