QuakeCon id Software Keynote Coverage
ruiner5000 writes "If you are not at lucky enough to be at this year's QuakeCon, then you might be wondering what John Carmack and crew are up to. Well, John is a father of a baby boy as of yesterday, so he was not here for his traditional talk on what id is up to. Instead, he appeared on pre-recorded video, followed by normal Q and A session with other id personnel. AMDZone has full coverage of the id keynote, including some pics for your enjoyment. If you want to know about the next engine, the Xbox, OS X, and Linux ports, id's standing on piracy, or Carmack's vision of game engines for movie rendering, then give it a read." S!: There's also continuing QuakeCon coverage over at GameSpy, including a long interview with Todd Hollenshead.
A baby eh.. that implies he has a girlfriend.. ueber-geek has girlfriend. Oh my god, there's something wrong. Did someone open a portal to hell or something??
Where's my duct-tape?
Cool, this will give me something interesting to read next week when their servers cool down. ;)
I've already begun building extensive maps based upon Doom 2. I hope to release them =)
Gabe Newell of Valce software recently gave birth to quadruplets.

What's next, CowboyNeal on a date?
Beware: In C++, your friends can see your privates!
That's funny, the new Nethack binaries released a couple days ago run just fine on my powerbook.
this is proof that carmack doesn't exist anymore. he uploaded himself to his computer to make the doom engine. my friends, this is how the matrix gets started.
It's unfortunate that all of their titles have been first person shooters..
Yeah, like Commander Keen..
I'd like to read it myself, but their AMD "server" couldn't handle the load.
