"We are arguably the best looking game on consoles today and the point is we are running at 2x the frame rate of what other people might argue as the best looking console game. So this has allowed us to have a distinctive visual stile, fabulous, top-of-the-line graphics, and still run at 60 frames per second and have a better gamplay experience not just a better looking game."

Looks great :D.

hmmm i think they're overhyping Rage. not a good idea considering how doom 3 turned out. dont get me wrong, i enjoyed doom 3, but i expected more after all that talk from carmack.

I wish it would be, I been itching for a fast paced twitchy in your face FPS shooter like Quake 3 or Unreal Tournament. I just want to blow s!@# up.

This, talking about gameplay and fun factor, very very few FPS can compete with Q3:A .... none topped it tho.

I have, quite frankly, have lost all interest in id projects since Quake II.

id has to be one of the most overrated game developers right now.

From what I've seen that looks like it's going to be the case. A solid rental or $5 Steam sale is what I'm thinking.

We'll see it when we'll play it.

Until then, it's just PR talk.

I'm right there with you. They really need to hire some new people (or snag some people from other studios) to teach them how to make a game with interesting gameplay. They have the graphics.

When it comes to pushing technology id Software are one of just a handful of devs that I look to and admire. However, when it comes to actually making a game with great gameplay they are inconsistent. Example: Doom 3 was amazing to look at and it had some decent scares from time to time, but the gameplay was average at best, and that's being nice. Rage looks impressive from a technical level and I find the gameplay to be somewhat interesting from the videos I've seen, but I'm willing to bet it'll still be average.

I hope it is, though I think it will be kinda hard to top their classics.

I have never enjoyed any of their games and I'm fairly sure nothing will change that.

Better than Doom II: Hell on Earth and Quake III Arena? I lol'd. It seems like they are channeling John Romero.

I'm sure the game is going to be solid but I think they're overhyping it a little bit too much.

Rage looks really good, all the things I been hearing form journilist have been really positive. My concern is that th eworld may be emetp like in borderlands. I want th ework to be rich and have lots of things to interact with like in fallout or oblivion, but with the gameplay of a FPS.

Why? The games looks incredible, assuming they deliver a fraction of what they promise we will have a great game.

They make 1 okay game, and everyone thinks they can't make games anymore...

I bet it is from a singleplayer perspective, vastly superior, (what it's focusing on) considering Q3A had no real SP, hardly think it's worth comparing it...
