You mean the "dry" summer months with GT5 releasing?

lol yeah I don't even use my sig so whatever he gives me is a welcome addition :D

Let us say the PS3 falls to 180-195k for the week and markers loses his bet, maybe he really won't!

According to the popular term going around this site with recent numbers we can just say that markers is still correct due to the margin of error.

180-190k according to the margin of error makes it a statisical tie with 200k!!! 

I like margin of error :D

Well it's used each and every week now when the PS3 finishes ahead of 360 in America, so why not use it to your advantage here?

markers should be allowed a three strikes and he's out,rule

just for such a good/fun prediction

i doubt he'll get it though

A) that's not even confirmed yet and B) that one game isn't going to keep the PS3 above 200k.

Who knows, maybe we will get double crow like in Leo-j's case.

PS3 will fall under the mark and someone will make a thread about it only to have NPD reveal that he was right for that month.

This bet will eventually fail, but it would be fun for it to ride out in the same fashion.

GT5 will produce a long-term and sustained hardware rise particularly in Others. It doesn't have a confirmed release date yet but theoretically speaking if it were to have a worldwide release right in that sweet spot where sales started to dip in the slow months I would feel comfortable in predicting PS3 would not fall below 175k for the rest of the year. Not above 200k but close to it. Now if we were to have a perfect storm of events like a $25/20 euro/2k yen price drop maybe to go along with the introduction of the paid PSN premium service in that same period then I'd feel comfortable in 200k, but that's obviously not going to happen.

so it holds true as for today?
