Zenimax (Bethesda) acquires id software (holy cow)

This. Apple had technical problems at the keynote and was unable to show off DOOM Resurrection.

Btw, some direct Fallout homages are now possible in Rage. (another pretty good interview too).

Interesting interview with gamespot - touches on a few different points than the above interviews and has a some pretty good bits.

 

It makes me very sad to see id go away. Their independence was nice. At the same time I too would not mind seeing an Elder Scrolls game with a decent engine.

Oh and does that mean open source engines go bye bye...

Edit:
Why didn't you post this in PC games geez, I was starting a new topic there when I found this.
