Though the games industry tends to follow a series of trends, there's always been one constant: PC gaming.
Most scoff at it, but Chris Taylor believes it's the future, and 2013 will be the year that PC gaming is finally acknowledged for the bastion of gamers it has always been.
When asked about what will be important in 2013, Taylor said?"In 2013 someone is going to stand up on a chair and declare ? maybe a rooftop ? and say PC gaming is not dead, anyone who says PC gaming is dead should be shot. It?s a lie.
"It?s bigger than ever, it?s the future of gaming, it?s not like it will compete with the other platforms. It is going to be the prominent form of gaming, maybe not in 2013 but these people are going to say this in 2013."
It's all thanks to the likes of Valve and its Big Picture mode, Taylor tells us, as well as living-room centric hardware such as the recently announced Xi3 Piston.
"It?s not console gaming, it?s PC gaming it just happens to be structured so it plays on your TV.
"Look at Microsoft and Surface, that?s a tablet that runs PC. I don?t know if that?s the solution or if it?ll be something else, but it?s PCs and the openness of PCs ultimately will find its way forward."
Taylor explains it's time the "walled gardens, proprietary technology, systems and licensing and all of that red tape and junk" went away and died, and that 2013 will be the year gamers realise that this can only happen with PC gaming.
It's interesting that Chris Taylor says this, however, since with our look into the year of 2013 feature - where we predict what the year has in store for gamers - we suggested 2013 will be the year of the PC gamer.
