Pachter Admits Red Dead Redemption Mistake
Wedbush Morgan analyst and increasingly ubiquitous games industry pundit Michael Pachter says he got it completely wrong about Red Dead Redemption. Previously he thought Rockstar Games was mad to expect strong sales of a wild west related adventure.
"I suppose we should call them [Rockstar Games] visionaries," Pachter told CVG. "I have been skeptical a long time, but they always believed that a Western, if done well, would sell well. It looks like they were right all along. Nobody can doubt that they made a great game. 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."
I think most of us could have told him he was wrong before the massive pre-order figures started rolling in.
