A little optimistic. Odds are, they won't even reach half that. Maybe they were just misquoted?...........Nah they weren't.

The 360 reaching 100m is IMPOSSIBLE...IMPOSSIBLE...IMPOSSIBLE. Unless it sells at a rate twice that of the Wii (IMPOSSIBLE), there is no way the system can sell another 75m in another 5 years (the maximum amount of time before some system's successor is released.)

15m a year from here on out until 2013............ HAHAHAHA

100 million isnt possible for microsoft IMO, I honestly believe a $299 PS3 will have a significant effect on the console war.

That's insanity. I can see the PS3 one day reching 100 million but not the 360.

What?

How does a console that is doing worse than the Xbox 360 have a valid chance of more than doubling it's lifetime sales?

i have to agree with what most have said....100 mil is impossible.....my most OPTIMISTIC guess would be 70 million and i think there is slim chance of that



I started making videos for youtube; check them out.

Contra (No Deaths): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b_OdnbGgupM

Super C (No Deaths): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XHoJrHWATgU

Mike Tyson's Punch-Out!! (Mike Tyson TKO): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J4L7oDV79aw

Systems owned: Atari 2600, NES(3), Top loader NES, Yobo NES, SNES, Sega Genesis, Sega Gamegear, Sega Nomad, Sega Saturn, Nintendo 64, Gamecube, Playstation 2, Wii, PS3 (slim 120 GB), Wii U

You should congratulate me. I destroyed the vile red falcon and saved the universe. I consider myself a hero.

100 million is far better than some of the pathetic predicitions made on this website.

Xbox 360 isn't going to die after this year. People predicting 30 - 40 need to actually look at the numbers and think logically.

That said I think 100 mill is a looong stretch and it wont make it.

 $199 vs $399

Playstation 1: 104M

playstation 2: 135M(and counting)

playstation 3: XXM

Thats why the PS3 has a chance
