You read our tidbits from John Carmack's keynote, but there was so much more that id's front man had to say in 3.5 hours that we just couldn't get it all down. So now you can watch the full video.

The whole talk about which one was better or more important or significant isn't really a worthwhile one to have anyway IMO because Quake kind of represented the final union of all these disparate ideas started with previous id FPS games that eventually melded together into one package. Each of their FPS games prior to Quake is a significant milestone in the history of the FPS genre and it does disservice to say that Doom or Quake is somehow lesser than the other.
