Dumbest prediction first so...
The US
Ok so it (the ps3) is 8816176 behind the xbox 360, going by last weeks stats, (as they have been coming down for quite a couple of weeks since the slim was released. (the us ps3 vs Xbox charts) so now it is 8thousand... ok lets call it 9000 hmmm that is 979 weeks or 18.83 years... unlikely to happen bud...
World wide
6761000 Difference. 88765 is the going rate (assuming it stays like this (not bring anything silly like the 360's possible version of the slim (natal) into it and the fact that 360 has a very good elite bundle with Modern Warfare 2 coming out... so not taking that in....
See this is more possible at 79 weeks so 1 and a half years. This is where my theory comes in though. The PS3 WILL slow down, not question. Not even the most avid PS3 addict would disagree with that. This would in theory push the amount into 2 years. Not including anything else that would be a hell of an effort.
Thus i conclude for world wide not likely. Little things like the Natal may definitely get in the way of your prediction unfortunately. And between you and me, I think that Microsoft saw the PS3 slim coming a mile away, something is getting planned (dunno what) but something. So all in all I personally thing a sill prediction from yourself...
That was fun, lets dance again shall we?
