id’s RAGE Ships In 2011

Posted: 15 Aug 2010 04:30 AM PDT


Last July 2007, id Software's RAGE was initially publicly shown as a tech demo at the Apple Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC). A month later at QuakeCon 2007, its developer officially announced the game. Now get ready for it to test your gaming rigs as RAGE is shipping to the U.S. and Europe by 2011.

RAGE is id Software's latest gaming franchise for the PC, Xbox 360, and PlayStation 3. A first-person shooter and racing game in one, the game has a post-apocalyptic setting after a destructive comet impact left Earth an inhabitable wasteland. Think Fallout 3 but much mkore detailed due to Id’s new graphics engine.

You will be assuming the role as a member of the Ark, a global movement set out to preserve scientists and other people necessary to rebuild the world, only to find out that very few humans survived. Mutants are the protagonists of the game, but only in the first part that is, as the game picks up a twist halfway.

The game is going to reach North America on September 13, followed by Europe on September 15.

Quake Arena Arcade Release Confirmed For Xbox Live

Posted: 15 Aug 2010 03:52 AM PDT


After a long wait by Quake 3 fans, CEO Todd Daniel of Pi Studios finally confirmed that they are releasing Quake Arena Arcade for Xbox Live between the end of November and early December 2010. The Quake Arena Arcade release will finally push through after failed attempts to conquer Microsoft's gaming console.

When Microsoft first mass-produced Xbox to compete with Sony's then-blooming PlayStation series, Pi Studios did develop a compatible Quake 3 game. But because the game was illegally made with an unlicensed Xbox Development Kit, only a modded Xbox was capable of running it. Shortly thereafter, it was released for the Xbox 360.

This year, Quake Arena Arcade for Xbox Live was finally confirmed after originally being announced at QuakeCon 2007.

Basically, Quake Arena Arcade is just an XBLA version of the original Q3, but with an imperishable 45 new maps for an exciting first-person shooting viewpoint. 30 of these maps were taken from Quake III: Arena, while 15 were specifically built for its XBLA release.

Pricing details are yet to be announced.
