I hate it how they kept calling it Id Software. It's id! Agh!

Regardless, that article was utterly useless and non-informational.

Somewhere in there, there is an old picture of all the id people on the roof of the building. I can't seem to remember the url.

Does anyone have a program that will scan for pages and give results like those past 4 links I posted?

Xian, do you have a link to it?

Yesterday, after looking at all those old beta shots of Q3, it dawned on me how ugly the current incarnation of the Q3 railgun is.

So I put whipped up a *.pk3 file that put the old Q3 test Railgun back in tha game. However, now it's got a nifty new rail-trail and sound effect added in. Oh yeah, i did something else too...

Anybody interested? hit me off at the MessageCenter.

"Billy "Wicked" Wilson, the man behind the popular gaming news website VoodooExtreme, liberally sprinkled his Monday updates with phrases that exposed his neverevending quest to be considered cool. Phrases such as "man-steak" and "Sweet Dick's hoochie" clearly show that Wilson does not understand that running a computer game website automatically negates any other progress one may make on the road to being part of the "in" crowd."

I do have to say that I think Id is past thier prime. They havn't set a trend sence Quake. That was the last engine that made 'real' changes to the way we play games. Quake II = not much diff then its mommy. Quake III = To little to late. :(

There is a reason why people say that UT won the engine wars...

Because it came with a game with some content. :)

man, I've played through the Keen Series so many times, I know the game inside and out. There was this one level where you had to jump under this huge rat in order to finish the level. That was pretty hard. Their language? Was is Vorticonian?

i could have written that article in my sleep. It was pretty much just a glimpse, or summary of what iD has done. He talks about how the mod community exploded with Doom, but doesn't mention anything with Quake 1/2/3. It seems as though it was written in about 20 minutes without doing any research whatsoever. That ION Storm article was much better and in-depth. I remember soem website wrote an id-history article that was at least a little more in-depth about a year ago. I don't really remember much about it, but it was at least not written in 20 minutes.
