Pachter: PS3 is [probably] more powerful than 90% of PC’s

Posted By | On 23rd, Mar. 2010

In another episode of Pach-Attack, Michael Pachter has made a bold claim- the PS3 is more powerful that 9 in every 10 PC’s.

Not afraid to make public his platform of choice, he further went on with doubts about the future of PC gaming,        “The PC market if you think about it just as package products sold — and let’s include Steam in there, not subscription like World of Warcraft is something like six or seven percent of total games sales — it’s not a big number,” he started.

“It’s becoming a declining industry becaues you can get a near PC experience on a console right now, and I know flamers, you all have PCs that just crap all over the PS3 and are much, much more powerful. But the PS3 is a pretty powerful box and it’s probably more powerful than 90 percent of PCs out there.”

And when asked about the Xbox 360 in relation to PC’s, he said, “”The Xbox 360 is probably more powerful than 85% of PCs out there.”

Well, to be perfectly frank, this is not such a huge statement. After all, 90% of PC’s are probably only used for work and home computing. So don’t worry PC gamers- we’re still one up on the consoles for now.
