carmack can make the PS3 sing

THE PS3

ITS GPU IS WII LEVEL

[Draft]

It just rapes every other game.

I'm shocked.

I mean not really SHOCKED, because I knew that Carmack is literally at the top of the pile. But come on!

He's ONE MAN. ONE SKINNY TEXAN. And he is DESTROYING huge development teams from every corner of the globe.

What a blessed person. One in a million.

I think I love him

actually, the engineer behind uncharted is helping with the ps3 version.

can't recall his name so google it up.

Man I love id.  While japafags were professing love to Sakaguchi I was marveling at Wolf 3D.  But these guys have to be the most unimaginative artists in the business.  I hate their monsters.  I can't stand them.  They are just so awful.

Could anything make you happier than Itagaki joining forces with Carmack? They would be the most amusing interview ever, if nothing else. And they could make games about space ninjas. With rocket launchers and katanas.

[CHOW CHOW]

Unbelievable... best looking game this gen.  Carmack is a sorceror

[Hitler Stole My Potato]

For the last couple of years Carmack was considered a no talent hack that was only decent at building PC engines (whatever that meant) and couldn't understand the programing complexities of the modern multi-core CPUs of today.  At least that was according to the wisdom of GAF.  Wonder if they've changed their mind?......hmmm.

[Tieno]

Fuck me beautiful, that's impressive. What's even more impressive is that everything looks consistent and has the same high-quality. If that's how gameplay looks
Seriously.

Now wonder EA partnered with iD.

pretty much on the nail

the technical achieevements on the engine are incredible

the art style...

yeesh.  so blargh

id impresses once again.  Looks absolutely stunning and with the talk of such smooth performance, it's even more impressive.

Too bad iD games have been snoreworthy since the original Doom games and Commander Keen... great technology, too bad they don't have any great game designers to utilize it properly.

Weh weh weh my opinion is contrary and alarming, pay attention!

Anyone who is ignorant of the impact Quake 1 and Quake 2 had on gaming is  

Anyone who is ignorant of Quake 3's status as the purest, cleanest deathmatch game of all time is  

Anyone who wasn't a huge fan of DOOM 3 is OK. I can understand.

[tiesto]

I'll give you Quake 1, on second thought... brought some big innovations to the FPS genre, like mouselook and a whole polygonal world, didn't care for the art direction at all (that game I think was the start of every game looking all overly brown and grey). Quake 2 was pretty forgettable... and 3 was fun but quickly overshadowed by UT.

[Draft]

Yes, the start of. IE- the game that DEFINED the look of FPS games for the next 5 years.

Quake also introduced the FPS world to server/client architecture, creating the modern online FPS.

Quake also launched modding into the mainstream.

Quake 2 was not revolutionary, but it took the things Quake 1 did and refined them to a razor's edge. The golden age of modding happened on the shoulders of Quake 2 (and Half-Life.)

Quake 3 is about to experience glorious resurrection via the web browser.

UT is a failed franchise, banished to the land of wind and ghosts. Overshadowed, indeed.

[cool breeze]

I'm not as adept in the history as Draft is, but is there any explanation as to why Quake 4 sucked big time?

[Eel O'Brian]

too doomy

[Draft]

It didn't suck big time, but it falls into the same bin DOOM 3 resides: serviceable. decent. pretty good. Nothing to get excited over, though.

[tiesto]

Yes, the start of. IE- the game that DEFINED the look of FPS games for the next 5 years.

I don't see this as a good thing though, depressing brown and grey, murky environments, are an instant turnoff to me. I like blue skies and lots of color and good artstyles way more than technological competence.

[MCD]

i don't like id designs but damn if the graphics ain't smoking hot.

[CHOW CHOW]

Wasn't Quake 4 made by Raven and not Id?

[Mupepe]

Are you referring to Rage?  Because there's an incredible amount of color in the outdoor environments.  Especially for an FPS in this generation.

I'm certainly not going to argue in favor of the DOMINATION brown sewers had on FPS art for the better part of a decade.

However, at the same time, I can objectively point to Quake as the game that inspired a generation of wanna-bes to APE that art direction and run it into the ground.

[cool breeze]

Halo is basically Quake at 1/100000000000000000000000000000000000th the speed/fun/etc...

ohh  we're not discussing rage's influence.  my bad.  let's all do it.

Yeah, OK.

It's true that the genre was defined by Quake, but the two games aren't even remotely similar (outside of the viewpoint).

[cool breeze]

Well, yeah.  I just like to use any chance I have to stress how unbelievably slow Halo plays.

[y2kev]

HALO PLAYS LIKE BORYS' MOTHER WALKS AROUND

SLOW

CAUSE SHE'S FAT

YO MOMMA'S FAT

[duckman2000]

I thought Quake 4 had some pretty awesome scenarios, it just played far too much like, well, Quake II. Which isn't a bad thing, if Quake 4 had only been released many years ago. Some of the environments were insane though, and I thought it looked really fucking good.

Quake Live.

Free to play, ad supported Q3A, runs on a plug in through your browser, much like the now in beta Legions.

Friendslist, ranked matchmaking, xgame chat and invites, the works. Gonna be silly.

Same old, same old.

I saw those Kotaku vids the other day, and was waiting for it to hit GAF.  The Killzone 2 pics were expected, but the fun is always which idiot will be most upset by what Carmack says and somehow attempt to argue his points.

[duckman2000]

I just don't understand why they are still arguing about this. I mean, I understand why they are doing it, but it doesn't make any sense. Carmack has already voiced his opinion on the various hardware of this generation, and it echoes the sentiment of every developer out there, including Criterion and Sony's first party developers; there's gold in these hills, but you have to put a ton of work into mining to extract it. And there simply isn't an incentive there for multiplatform developers to do so. Trotting out images of Killzone 2 is then, of course, absolutely pointless. These dudes should at this point be happy that this developer is making an effort to get something good out of the system.

[Crushed]

quick post more cam shots of dude raider

[cool breeze]

I'm going to buy all these games on PC anyway.  This console bullshittery is lame.  They already announced the purpose of this engine, and despite the PS3 being harder to develop for, the entire goal of the engine is to make this shit simple for when it is used in other games.  Basically, leave it up to Carmack and his crew to work this shit out despite having troubles, they will do it, and everyone will be happy.  They are even making an effort to have it work great on the Mac.  When was the last time a non-blizzard game was pimped out to have specialized focus on the Mac?
