PS3 - Rage - IGN E3 2008: More on the id, EA Deal

IGN writes: "For years seminal first-person shooter developer id Software partnered with Activision to publish its games. That changed on Monday, when EA revealed that it had signed a deal with id to publish Rage, the upcoming shooter/driving action game that was revealed last year. It's something of a change for id, part of what co-founder and programming wizard John Carmack described as a new vision for the company. After a couple years of relative quiet, id is busy working on a number of projects, from Rage, to Quake Live (a free, Web-based version of its famous game Quake III Arena), to Doom 4."

id CEO: "Epic has a philosophy to license to everyone they can"

PS3 News from N4G | Rage

With id Software slowly unveiling more of its internal projects, including the Mad Max-esque Rage and the id Tech 5 engine that powers it, the studio that once led the PC engine licensing game is sending a clear message that it intends a return to form.

The CEO spoke on the flexibility of the technology, id's changing attitude towards developer support and tools, when the engine will be ready--and he even painted a striking contrast to rival Epic, which has been in the news lately for licensing-related matters.
