PC - RAGE - Carmack confident RAGE will be 60fps on all platforms John Carmack of iD Software reveals that RAGE's framerate suffers considerably on the PlayStation 3.

In the latest Edge magazine, programming wizard John Carmack states that the Xbox 360 version of RAGE just about matches the 60fps framerate of the PC version, while the PS3 only runs the game at around 20-30fps at this stage in development.

Previously Carmack has stated that the PS3 is a little bit slower at running RAGE, but this is the first time we've been told by just how much. However, iD Software still intends to release all three versions at 60fps and they're confident they can achieve this.

PC - RAGE - id Software ramps up for new project Bethesda buy-out brings new team...

id Software is ramping up a new team to work on new projects following the announcement of the Zenimax buy-out

The partnership brings together two of the most critically-acclaimed and commercially-successful studios of recent years, with a combined list of gaming franchises set to include DOOM, Fallout, The Elder Scrolls, QUAKE, Wolfenstein and RAGE.

So what about specific new projects that gamers might soon see as a result of the deal?

Hines adds: "They'd like to start building up a full third team and, as a result of this deal, they'll be able to do that more quickly than they could have previously with the additional resources they have to work with now."

PC - RAGE - id CEO Hollenshead: Studio to remain 'games first, licenses second' Chris Remo from Gamasutra writes:

"Veteran independent studio id Software has been ambitious with its plans for upcoming engine id Tech 5, intending its use across multiple platforms and genres -- but don't expect the company to shoot for an Epic-size list of licensees, says CEO Todd Hollenshead.

"Our philosophy really hasn't changed from what it's always been, which is games first, licenses second," Hollenshead tells Gamasutra in an interview. "Working on Rage and working on Doom [4], which are both id Tech 5 games, are certainly our top priorities". "

PC - RAGE - id Software's Rage not coming in 2009. Ve3tro writes: "At the recent DICE event held last month Geoff Keighley asked CEO Todd Hollenshead if id's latest development Rage would release this year. "We will be probably looking at this for next year at least right, not this year?" it was obvious that Todd replied with "No, won't be out this year." while he shook his head.

Some site's are confirming that Todd actually said "No, we'll be out this year.", so with the confusion I gave Geoff a quick message asking which is correct with a response of "It's not coming this year he said."

So there you have it, a 2009 release is false at this time."
