Besides MMORPG, I like/love many other genre's, still have lots of love for the FPS genre, overall I enjoy most of Id's games and Rage seems to become a game to look forward to for me.

Here is a interview about the game> http://www.gametrailers.com/video/creative-director-rage/54284 

Technical presentation report for those intrested> http://s09.idav.ucdavis.edu/talks/05-JP_id_Tech_5_Challenges.pdf

Some of the Rage game highlights that Carmack talked about are:

  • An engineering system to craft devices including sentry turrets and RC car bombs, if you have the blueprints and parts.
  • Your health regenerates–a gift connected to your history.
  • Races and missions are available from hub towns.
  • Vehicular combat is a big part of racing, with power-ups and ammo placed around the courses.
  • Weapon upgrades, such as a scope and aiming stabilisers for a crossbow.
  • Alternate ammo types, including a crossbow bolt which allows you to briefly control victims before they explode.
  • Stealth is an option in combat too.
  • A gladiatorial game show named Mutant Bash TV offers big prize money.
  • A car parts system allows boosts to areas such as acceleration, traction and suspension.
  • Other car upgrades include bombs, a magnet to draw power-ups, tire shredders and EMP shields.
  • Multiplayer modes are currently not finalised. 
  • One weapon is a three-tipped boomerang called the ‘wingstick,’ which will return.
  • The PC version will offer higher resolutions, more anti-aliasing and faster texture page-in times, but the three versions are essentially the same.
