ID Software's Top Secret Game Engine in ...

"What we've got here is the entire world with unique textures, 20GB of textures covering this track. They can go in and look at the world and, say, change the color of the mountaintop, or carve their name into the rock. They can change as much as they want on surfaces with no impact on the game."

It may be impressive textures but the game looks nothing new...just another shit motor cross game.

A funny computer joke I made up is that John Carmack was caught using performance-enhancing APIs.

Now if they put that amount of time and money into our education system and pay the teacher better, our kids wouldn't be so stupid.

That in 10 days? Wow. But was it a cinema or actual in engine walking around. I'm still more impressed with Crysis.

And the technology needed to run games like that is... not available yet? Unless you're going to run it on their ID's server.

Wow, i could go and carve my name on the rocks!!!

THe real world outside is nothing compared to this shit!!!!I can't do any of those things in the real world!

WOW!!!
carve my name on the rocks...just imagine in 20 years maybe we could even smell the air!!!


p.s.
you geeks should go outside and play...seriously wtf is this shit?carve names on rocks?20GB of texture?color of mountaintop?? wtf? havent u guys went on a hike or something?

I just went on a canoe trip last weekend and i pretty damn sure, the 'texture' of the rocks ive seen outside is more than 20Gb bullshit, we have a beautiful land here in America, dont waste your time playing pc games that tries to resemble the real world outside.

THose who votes me down are likely to have a fat belly and lots of pimples on the faces.

^I am not sure I want to go outside and shoot stuff for fun, and there are no funny aliens/ww2 Nazis or other happy creatures to molest.
And I dont think I will be able to fly a F-16 in real life. But as far as the canoeing goes I am with you.
You are basicly saying, stop jerking off and using your imagination, and go rape people.

I gotta go with awanis on what he said.

I'm going into gaming design and programming. but i'll still go outside and hang out.

Games are fun and if they are your life that's fine but enjoy reality too, dont waste your life playing WOW or some shit.
