EDIT: Just in case mods were wondering, this is to hopefully keep the 25+ QuakeCon individual topics popping up, and also hopefully cut down on repeat ones.

Nothing new in the article but it's still refreshing that Beth is getting better with setting up the voices in the game.

That link isn't really related to QuakeCon, considering it was posted before it started.

Which is exactly why one thread saying "Okay, post here" is a good idea ;)

I took this a moment ago from QuakeCon. This is Beth's booth with a bunch of computers and xboxes running Rage: http://i.imgur.com/vhoD9.jpg

Unfortunately there doesn't look to be a staff member anywhere around :(

Journalists are playing in a separate area, the public can't watch them. They don't have access.

Thanks for the clarification , but why all the secrecy ?! They're afraid someone will see a mushroom or an Argonian ?!

Unfortunately no, the one photo I've seen of the GI guys appeared to be in one of the rooms here (we're at a huge Hilton hotel). I haven't seen Todd or Pete or any of the Bethesda staff wandering around today either. The staff members at the Rage booth appear to be volunteers from a clan called PMS (all women lol)

I'm hoping we'll get a ton more details tomorrow with the presentation. I have a quake-done-quick package that gives me priority access to the presentations so I'll make sure to get there extra early and try to get front row seating if possible!

I think they're afraid that anyone else but a journalist knows anything about the game... really, this is RIDICULOUS!!!
That's seriously the WORST marketting I ever seen :facepalm:

Wait, that's the worst marketting I haven't seen! hehe
