« on: June 20, 2006, 09:03:48 AM »
Anyone else read a story that id software was getting offers for a buy out and Adrian Carmack was forced out of the company?

Most important to me, is that John Carmack doesn't appear to be very involved for quite some time.  Supertexturing and other work, but nothing that is as innovative as doom and quake.

Then again, what do I know.  Most of what we read is rumor and speculation.

I've been sick with Q2 since 2007. It's incurable.
Dying and reviving is common. It's a shame the QT was good.
