It’s that freakishly hot time of year in North Texas when there is little else to do but hunker down in a dark, air conditioned room and play video games with a few thousand of your closest friends. Luckily, QuakeCon starts tomorrow at the Hilton Anatole Hotel in Dallas and it should satisfy your needs to play some competitive games and try out some upcoming releases from Bethesda and others. I’ll be right there with the sweaty masses as they queue up to get in to the infamous Bring Your Own Computer (BYOC) room and I’ll try to give you a feel for everything else happening if you can’t make it to the event yourself.
