Pachter seems to get a lot of shit for no good reason. He's an analyst, not a fortune teller. He's not always right. It's unrealistic to expect him to be always right. Really he's no different than many of us on the forums, it's just that he is a professional in the field. Perhaps that's why he's so hated irrationally. People are jealous of him.

I'd say he's more of a fortuneteller than an analyst. At least in the sense that if he's ever right, it's completely by accident.

So, he's in it for the free games?

I knew it had to be something. The secret has been unveiled, finally.

I'm not totally sure whether CVG have manipulated what he said, but I thought he always just said RDR wouldn't sell GTA numbers and would be limited to 3 mil to 4 mil due to it's western appeal.

Which is surely still true? Or is this game gonna be huge? I know ALOT of people who've bought it already simply cause there hasn't been a GTA in 3 years.

What I believe is tht this game is pretty safe to sell pretty well, but I have to agree with patcher when he stated a while ago it's too soon to have a gta seller

GTA 4 came out 2 years ago. The expansion packs for it came out more recently.

"The industry Nostradamus even hopes he'll receive a copy, though admitted that the chances of Rockstar sending him one are slim: "Maybe after that comment, they'll finally send me a copy; they haven't sent me any games since I doubted whether Bully would sell well," he said."

Why does this jackass get copies from developers?



updated: 14.01.2012

playing right now: Xenoblade Chronicles

Hype-o-meter, from least to most hyped:  the Last Story, Twisted Metal, Mass Effect 3, Final Fantasy XIII-2, Final Fantasy Versus XIII, Playstation ViTA

bet with Mordred11 that Rage will look better on Xbox 360.

That doesn't say much for analysts, does it?
