It was during the QuakeCon, mecca of first person shooters fundamentalists (its organizers prefer the more modest "Woodstock of gaming"), that Id Software has unveiled a brand new trailer of Rage. Not much peace & love in these two minutes of flying bullets and screaming wheels, in the heart of a post-apocalyptic but nevertheless vibrant Texas that evokes a Mad Max fan's wet dream come true. Even though the visual fidelity seems a bit down compared to last year's trailer, its content is much more relevant since it includes real gameplay clips. We like.
Update: Four images added.

Commented on 2009-08-14 10:32:04to be honest, the game mechanics and features also seem to be quite limited and out of time. Its shooting and racing in a limited canyon thats all... very restricted if you ask me in a time where games like Assassin's Creed 2 are coming about. ID's proposition isn't bringing a great new day for multi-platform dev.

Commented on 2009-08-14 11:29:33The rest looks pretty generic, if you ask me..

Commented on 2009-08-14 13:42:12the small clips of gameplay just look like doom 3, which can be seen as both a possitive and negative really depending on who you are. i dunno, nothing particuly stands out in this one...i'm waiting for doom 4.

Commented on 2009-08-14 14:14:56 In reply to ThorI think it looks good. Just how impressive it is is hard to tell without being able to explore the world, but it sure as hell doesn't look bad.

Commented on 2009-08-14 14:23:34 In reply to nostradamusSaw the trailer yesterday.. looks awesome. What really impressed were the animations.
Story... well, ID arent exactly known for their deep storys. I just hope it plays better than their last 2 efferts. Quake 4 was a joke. And Doom 3 a uninspiring.
Commented on 2009-08-14 14:32:49And 60fps! Oh how I wish more developers would realise how important this is.
Commented on 2009-08-14 14:39:27Not to mention that, judging from the snippets shown in that trailer, the gameplay itself is incredibly bland.

sorry to turn this into another "UNCHARTED 2 looks better" thread, but it just does, and had to be said, especially after all this megatexture talk.
