There seems to be a continuing trend of several hard core gaming news sites really stepping up the level of their coverage.  Evil Avatar has interviewed game industry analyst Michael Pachter about how he makes his predictions.  It doesn’t tackle all the points of contention between gamers and analysts in general, but it’s an informative and quick read.

The interview is actually part of the Evil Avatar Analysts site.  It’s still working on hitting its stride, and insight can vary from pundit to pundit, but it’s a good place for commentary on the latest numbers and forecasts.  Sometimes the commentary’s as simple as “can anyone figure out where they pulled that prediction from?“.  Other entries combine sales numbers for a more in-depth take than you might have come up with just digging around on your own.  Either way, it’s sure to be more good fodder for console partisans.
