I love doing push-ups since it's a good way to make and maintain muscle. I would also recomened doing pull ups since that also helps build back muscle. But I still believe that if someone wants muscle they NEED TO GO TO THE GYM!!!!

Pull ups will help to build more muscles then only the back muscle. Depended on which grip you use. If you master pull ups. lets say 15 proper pull ups you can go for muscle ups. Or add weight to your body. You will get stronger/bigger 100%
In the gym most machines isolate the muscle you want to train. So yes you will get bigger(and maybe bigger then with bodyweight exercises.) however its not your whole body that will get stronger. I still like the gym though.
Did you ever saw those gymnastics freaks? They simply are monsters and for what i know they focus on bodyweight.
