id Software's new engine

Written by John M

Three years and counting.

The next big waiting continues. Now, we know what we are waiting for: Rage. That's the name of the new franchise from id Software based on the last engine from the company's co-founder John Carmack: id Tech 5. "5" you ask? What about the previous four ones? Here they are:

- id Tech 1: Doom 1 and Doom 2

- id Tech 2: Quake 1 and Quake 2

- id Tech 3: Quake 3

- id Tech 4: Doom 3 and Quake 4

And it's a new game for a reason, it won't just be a first person shooter, it will incorporate vehicles meant for racing, not just for dull driving. It will also feature an open and non-linear enviroment; forget those claustrophobic rooms. Well, in this case I will miss the closed, dark hallways, they added to the atmosphere of the game.
