1. BLU-RAY will replace DVD in the future

2. BIG HIT GAMES like MGS series, FINAL FANTASY series, GTA series

3. More realistic games like KILLZONE 2

4. cheaper PS3

5. CELL processor matters in the future

How many did PS2 have? I would say PS3 slightly will outsell that.

More and more people are being born into the world, and more and more are getting into video games. Also people want the best media. Which is Blue-Ray.

the 360 and Wii are much better competition to the PS3 than the Xbox and Gamecube were to the PS2. competition from the Xbox and Gamecube were pretty much non-existant.

Blu Ray will definitely help sales though... although i think that the mass public will get into Blu Ray late in the PS3's lifespan. Blu Ray still needs to fully take down HD DVD (not just in sales... but for movie studios to completely abandon the format), and then have the average household to have HDTVs.

I fully expect the Wii to reach 35%-40% attach rate in American homes. That means half the population will own one...It will never sell to every household though, I hate the damn thing.

that is a pretty extreme attach rate. i think in Japan with the DS... Nintendo is still aiming to hit 10% of the population.

The PS2 did about 33% (if you round the numbers to nice even ones like 100 million and 300 million Americans) and the Wii is by far more popular with people who don't care for video games.

wrong. it is going to see around 6 billion, since there are 6 billion people in this world. :twisted:c0mplex

I think you mean 60 billion

you know China alone takes up 10 billion

so, I expect PS3 to have sold 10 billion (1000 million)at its cycle end

The PS3 definitely has a change to rech to 100mil mark. The only problem would be the price. Just when Sony dropped the price to 500 bucks sales increased with 125%. Imagine what will happen once it gets to 200 dollars:shock:

Can be who knows. PS2 has about 118 million after 6/7 years. I think its possible with the growing console market.

Why would you want 100 million people to buy a thrown-together beast that is guaranteed to die on them? That's kind of mean :P

The competition is just fine now. Try and find a majority to agree that Sony will score a three-peat. It won't happen.

6 billion in the world. China accounts for about 1.3.

1000 million is 1 billion, not 10 billion.

Remedial math ftw.

My bet is 60 million units sold until ps4's launch. It depends on how fast people will replace their SDTVs with HD ones.

It all depends on how fast Sony decides to drop the price. With the recent price drop many people who wanted a PS3 bought one, but it is still too expensive. I think if the price is able to get to $300 or below 100mill might be possible. I think the vast majority of PS2's were sold at $200 and below.
