The AnandTech Podcast, Episode 44: Gaming in 2017, Gaming in 2018
by Ian Cutress on January 27, 2018 1:00 PM ESTIt’s hard to talk about gaming in 2017 without mentioning PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds. Joining me on The AnandTech Podcast today is Chris Dring, a veteran of games journalism, writer for almost 20 years, and an old high-school friend. This is a podcast I’ve wanted to do for a while: Chris has a unique insight into the gaming industry, having published an alarming number of magazines covering the industry and events such as E3, as well as interviewing most of the high-profile and indie elements of the UK games industry, so I wanted to pick his brain on the current state of a main driver of computing technology. In this podcast we talk about PUBG and the other gaming highlights of 2017, as well as a look towards what is in store for gaming in 2018, from both a hardware and software perspective.
