Ok, so you attack my predictions, so what, that doesn't change that PS3 won't hit 60 million, you can go look at its sales chart from launch its trend line just further shows that 60 million is unlikely, even with its current sales post slim it would take years, and if it starts to fall off, it wont reach it, because the gen will be over and its sales will drop off with the announcement and launch of the PS4

Ok then yahh sure, so now go away.

http://vgchartz.com/hwlaunch.php?cons1=PSP&reg1=All&cons2=PS3&reg2=All&cons3=PS3&reg3=All&weeks=312&weekly=1

its clearly shown right in the charts, the PS3 is trending lower than the PSP, and the PSP has been out since late 2004, and its still not there, PS3 will take even longer than the PSP, and that assumes that the next gen doesn't start by then, if it does, then PS3 sales will die off, and it won't make it.

Wii didn't even get to 70 Million)

Depends on When MS and Sony announce their next gen consoles, as that is when you'll really start to see the sales of the 360 and PS3 start to drop off

Again, you haven't addressed any or my points, calling me dense doesn't change that what I've been saying, just look at the charts, you can clearly see that it'll be 3 years at the earliest before the PS3 can reach 60 million, and that is assuming sales don't fall off, but the fact is, the PS4 will be announced and may even launch well before the PS3 can get to 60 million and that will cause PS3 sales to fall off, so as I've been saying PS3 reaching 60 million is unlikely.

Not a chance.

Your points suck, two people already went through that with you. But fine some never really learn until they are beating hardcore.

- Well your whole theory is based on comparing a hand held to a console wtf, and two products that launched at two VERY different prices.

- You don't take into account PS3 price former current and future and its affect on sales.

- You don't get that FF13 and GT5 might light a fire under PS3 sales ass.

- Nor Sony or MS are in a rush to get the next gen started, MS have stated they believe this will be a longer gen then previous. While Sony is hell bent on the whole 10 year life cycle, and that is very profit based mentality not just empty words.

- you look at everything in a negative, maybe pull your head out of your ass for a few minutes and smell what the PS3 is cooking.

- Maybe just maybe you opinion is worthless and just wrong, maybe just the opposite will happen. Maybe.

Maybe you got your opinion across, you wont convince anyone so why bother.
