Michael Pachter a famous video games Analyst has said that "no one out there has a PC as powerful as a PS3". He also went on to say that "PC gaming is – more or less – dying, as the money was and is on consoles". You can read the full article here.
Obviously he's not doing his job correctly. He also said something along the lines of: no good games will be made any more because fans complained about the ending of Mass Effect 3.

Edit:- I disagree with him completely.

No? Are you retarded or something? you need to either jtag or flash an xbox and with a ps3 you need a hack usb? With a pc you download a bittorrent like utorrent or limeware and Hey presto Pirate time :3

yeah.. and that is actually so fucking hard... here, people sells the consoles patched/jagged, etc.... so fuck it, you just ave to go and buy it in a store, bam the console is pirated...

but yeah, technically, you are rigth... but for the common of people, at least here, is just go and buy the console, flash, or jagged, what ever... people don't even concider the task, the have they pirated consoles, and don't even know how to path/crack a game or install an OS...

I believe this is another case of someone not knowing anything about their field of work. I congratulate Mr. Pachter on a job well done.

The article linked was terrible, trying to rile up gamers... he made that PS3 comment 2 years ago for crying out loud. Not to mention that the ME3 stuff was totally taken out of context and misinterpreted.

If he thinks the PS3 is better than the PC, well...he must not have ever tried playing Skyrim on both systems and comparing them... :P

Or anything in the last few years for that matter. Recently I got FIFA 13 on PC and my brother got it on PS3 and the difference is staggering. I had Arkham City on PS3 and a friend had it on PC and when I saw the difference I decided to get back into PC gaming for stuff other than Football Manager. I had a friend over recently and he saw Battlefield 3 running with full graphics, so now he's saving to build a gaming rig.

It was possible to say so 6 years ago. But comparing it modern PCs? What's he thinking of? Oh yeah, let another guy yell "PS3 is more powerful than you can imagine, its true potential hasn't just been revealed yet since it's hard to make games for its architecture". And how PC gamins is dying? Look at Valve!

The guy needs to be fired away -_- He doesn't understand a shit of the modern gaming market. "Famous ananylist" my ass.

The dude said it in 2010, and the 'article' linked was posted like this week.. He says 'because Pacher hasn't retracted his statement from 2 years ago explicitly, he must still think it holds true' (paraphrasing).

Uh.. really? Worthless article discussing a tweet from 2+ years ago that has no relevance on anything.
