Forums - Gaming - I'm starting to like Pachter

I can't bring myself to have respect for an individual that is as wrong as he is, as often as he is, in a profession where he is supposed to be right. Having him do dumps of information that are obvious doesn't count. And having him speak one way, and then later on go and say the exact opposite, doesn't count either. Look at him, say that the 3DS would be suspect saleswise, than then go off and say that the 3DS is poised to sell real well to someone else. And then there is the whole Wii HD is needed, and then to say Move is Wii HD. Go look at my sign for the amount of times Pachter is wrong.

I'm pretty sure that out of everyone in the entire game industry, he's right the most.

That's according to the chart I saw last year. Has that changed?

I like him alot, actually.



I don't need your console war.
It feeds the rich while it buries the poor.
You're power hungry, spinnin' stories, and bein' graphics whores.
I don't need your console war.

NO NO, NO NO NO.

well, since you are a 360 fan he doesn't bash and predidct a daily doom to your favorite consoloe



"It really depends on this 3DS and how good it is, because I don't think Nintendo has anything else."

 

"I told everyone a Wii HD was coming this year, it just happens to say PS3 on the box. It is the Wii HD."

 

I'll pass on Pachter, thanks. So will most other Nintendo fans I imagine.

Exactly.



I just think his predictions are rubbish but don't hate the guy. I mean he's just doing his job but his predictions are just crap.

I agree. He is the only non dirtbag on gametrailers TV. Rest of them shower on a monthly basis...

I have a crush on keighly! isn't he pro 360?!

I don't know what he is... but his habbit of hyping things and having no opinion on anything kinda bother me.

Keighly has to regularly interact with folks from every publisher under the sun, and the only reason they ever talk to him is to sell their stuff.  Yes he's a cheerleader for The Industry, but he's just more open and less selective about that than the rest.

EVERYBODY was wrong about that, not just Pachter.



I only have one thing to say. He claimed that Real Time Strategy games were TURN BASED and slow paced. While the latter is debatable (though I disagree on many titles) the first is inarguable.



Check out my game about moles ^

He's informed and makes valid arguments most of the time. The problem is the video game industry is strange and a lot of logical arguments don't add up to real life results.

Also it doesn't matter how wrong he is since for me it's mostly entertainment.
