Couldn't make it down to Big D this year to go to QuakeCon? We've got you covered with a photo album to make you feel like you waited in line for hours on end too.
We'll lead you through our two days spent at QuakeCon 2012, where the biggest draw is the huge LAN party that attracted over 3,500 participants this year. We'll show you the trek to the hotel in 107 degree Texas heat, panels with videogame luminaries, and everything in between.
The "Lost Mission" is an addition of 8 new levels to the Doom 3 campaign.
A healthy line up of guests, events, and demos should draw in the crowds.
The date and location of this year’s QuakeCon have been known for some time, but Zenimax has just provided the first details of what will be on the show floor. The event will kick off with John Carmack’s keynote address at the Hilton Anatole Hotel in Dallas on August 2. A host of other panels will follow through the duration of the conference that wraps on August 5. Panels like “The Game of Making Games” and an Idle Thumbs Podcast will provide a steady flow of things to do while giving your rig a break from the “world’s largest LAN party.”
It’s not the size of the gun, it’s… oh wait, this is Doom we’re talking about.
I love Doom. From the moment I shot my first demon with a shotgun on an occupied Martian base in the early '90s, I was hooked. The sense of power, the satisfaction of getting a perfect shot, the click-clack of cocking that beastly boom stick yet again for another blow, all balanced with the tension of not knowing what’s around the next corner. It all came together to form an addictive stew of demon slaying madness. Doom II was basically more of the same, and after that, the franchise lay dormant for over a decade.
It's time to pull out the big guns again.
You may not have known that you wanted it, but Bethesda has just announced the aptly titled Doom 3 BFG Edition. Seemingly coming out of nowhere, the BFG Edition will be released on PC, Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 sometime this fall and as you would expect, it packs a wallop.
Doom 3 gets a remaster for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 that includes seven all new levels called "The Lost Mission."
The yearly convention returns this summer.
QuakeCon's dates have been revealed for this year. It will be open to the public and attendance is FREE! We all like free stuff, right? The convention will take place between August 2-5 at the Hilton Anatole hotel in Dallas, Texas.
The XBLA port has been reintroduced to the marketplace.
Doom was originally released for the Xbox Live Arcade on September 26, 2006. The title was a port of the original PC version and featured co-op, as well as multiplayer, along with all of the bells and whistles Xbox Live Arcade games get. Then, the game was delisted on September 24, 2010. This was most likely due to a licensing issue as Activision had released the port.
Two studio closures and deep layoffs at id make for a rough start to 2012.
The video game industry is a volatile one, especially around this time of year. As projects wrap up, layoffs are common. However, the recent collection of layoffs is rather shocking, with many people having lost their jobs in rapid succession.
