Pachter is a full fledged retard. Glad I never take his "accounts" seriously.
For more information regarding Pachter's condition, please query the following terms:
- delusions of grandeur
- chronic aphasia
- cretinism
Just stumbled upon this post when pointed out. You embarrass me and you should be ashamed of yourself.
As much as you hate Pachter's job or predictions or consultation, personally attacking someone like that is shameful. Do people read what they type before hitting "Submit Reply"? Did you?! No wonder he considers us all assholes...
...*smackdown*...
Hypothetically.
Couldn't anyone on GAF with a business degree do a better job than Patcher?
I just can't fathom how this man continues to be involved in investment decisions. I understand why 'gaming journalism' has picked up on him, its an easy way to generate hits with a quick laugh.

I wouldn't say what he said.

Exactly. That's the point.
Anyone with a business degree who has an understanding of the industry and the hardware would be able to advice investors more accurately.
Patcher obviously doesn't have any idea how this industry works.
It's me. The avatar was made by a GAFfer. I thought it was funny, adopted it as my own.
Yes, we're really taping a show about GAF and all the negativity. I think I'm only part of it, think they are going to interview others as well.
Someone here theorised how Patcher was actually giving free info (true or false) to manipulate stock value of various companies in how he saw fit.
Technically legal but unethical behaviour.
Or he does and have an ulterior motive.
As has been said. He suggested four times the power of current gen, and was asked what that meant.
He took 60fps and multiplied it by four. It was a poor explanation to an otherwise reasonable comment.
Oh good, it really is you. Now I can tell you to your face that you're insane.
Why on earth would we NEED games rendered at 240fps? 60? Sure, we would all love that. But 240fps would be such a ridiculous waste of resources that could be better spent on IQ.

That must be how he came up with the idea that Fuse would sell 5 million units. He took a normal believable number like 1.25 million units, then using the Pachter Clown Vector, he multiplied by 4.
If you don't trademark this, I will....

Over 700fps on nvidia 250gts. Just imagine PS4 wow!!!

Patcher :lol Amazing.
I don't consider you an a-hole at all. Your post was very kind, and I appreciate the effort. I'm not going to fight back with every person who makes this personal, am too busy to do so, but I'm happy to take the time to thank someone who defends me.
On Tuesday, I'm taping a show dedicated to how GAFfers are (mostly) smart and are (mostly) assholes. It should be fun.
Yes, I always wonder what will set GAF off, and this was truly an innocent comment. To be honest with you, I have no idea how many frames per second the human eye can process, am pretty sure it's more than 60 fps, since we can all see the difference between 30 and 60, but I have no clue if we can see more than 120 fps, or if we can even see that. I was merely explaining to Cliff Edwards that four times the processing power would make the machine capable of rendering at that speed. I have no idea what the games will look like, which features they will incorporate, but my guess is that the specs will be sufficiently powerful that developers won't be particularly constrained from getting the look and feel that they desire. As one commenter pointed out, PC games have once again moved past console games, and each new generation of consoles allows the consoles to partially catch up.
GAF usually reacts if I comment on technical specifications, charging more money for anything, or make any comment that has the word "Nintendo" in it. To answer your question, I always presume that if I talk about any of these topics, GAF will go ballistic.
And as you pointed out, I'm amazed at the asshole factor on this website. The asshole/civil ratio must be 2:1 or more.

I don't even think current hdmi spec has the bandwidth for 4K 60fps too began with.
The eye can't really see beyond 60fps.Patcher is awful. Even I could probably be a better analyst. 200+fps? Why, TVs can show 60 or 120 max...
That's not true, but that's for another thread.The eye can't really see beyond 60fps.

Framerates as high as 120 or 240 would be pointless in my opinion.
