Can't say I am that fussed about Rage.
Quake 4 was terrible, long live Quake 3 and Quake Live. Im holding on to those.

Rage just looks like every other ID game with regards to style. About time they produced something super fresh.
QuakeCon will be cool. Shame all the cool events happen state side!

iD do the engines, that's their speciality. I can see the point about Rage looking like other iD stuff, but that's their unique style, much in the same that the Unreal engine, the Source engine etc are. I remember the 'dude' with the gun in the Rage trailer looked just like the bloke from Doom 3 with a few more polys, but again, it's iD's style.
