QUAKE 4 PC TO HIT STORE SHELVES IN MID-OCTOBER
Sydney, Australia – October 5, 2005 – id Software™, Raven Software and Activision, Inc. (Nasdaq: ATVI) have confirmed Earth’s invasion of Stroggos with the announcement that QUAKE 4™ PC has entered manufacturing and will begin shipping to retail stores nationwide on Wednesday, October 19. The long awaited sequel to QUAKE II®, QUAKE 4 enlists gamers in the role of Matthew Kane, a member of the Earth Defense Force’s legendary Rhino Squad, to penetrate deep into the heart of the Strogg war machine and engage in a series of heroic missions to destroy the barbaric alien race.
“On October 19, QUAKE is dialing it up to 4.0 on the Richter Scale with this new chapter in Earth’s war against the Strogg,” said Todd Hollenshead, CEO, id Software. “Fusing an epic war-story driven single player campaign, and fast-paced QUAKE III Arena® inspired multiplayer, QUAKE 4 delivers a gaming experience fans will be raving about for years.”
Developed by Raven Software and executive produced by id Software, QUAKE 4 begins only moments after the events of QUAKE II, with the Earth’s fleet launching a massive offensive to the planet Stroggos. As Matthew Kane, an elite member of Rhino Squad, gamers invade the alien stronghold, fighting alone, along side other Marines, and in mechanized walkers and hover tanks as they encounter the Strogg and their disturbing amalgamations of man and machine. Built on id Software’s revolutionary DOOM 3® technology, QUAKE 4 also features fast-paced multiplayer competition modeled after the speed style and feel of QUAKE III Arena.
For more information, fans can visit www.quake4game.com. QUAKE 4 has been rated “MA 15+” by the Office of Film and Literature Classification.
Although its not completely created by iD Software. Raven Software is a great company and has made a lot of great games like that of the Soldier of Fortune series. Like iD software they have a long past of FPS games, having many old hit games like that of Hexen and Heretic.
iD Software and Raven Software have many times worked together on games such as Hexen 2.
Raven Software have for a long time now used iD Software Engines, and have always made great advancements. So there is no doubt that it'll be a great release.
I'd like to see Raven Software to start work on a new Soldier of Fortune. Or to start another new work.

How do you get spammed so quickly!??
Anyway, back on topic, It's good to see that the Linux version will be released around the same time! Yay!
I don't know they seem to like me! How did you stop spam?
yeah I just read up about the Linux version. Thats really good that it'll be on it so soon.
Used to take years.
They'll be using SDL which is interesting. I always thought I shouldn't use SDl as I thought it would be slow. Maybe I should use it now as it looks so easy.
But they still don't use it on Windows, so maybe its slower or it's not as good as Direct Input(DirectX's Input API).
It's good to see them using the Cross-Platform nature of OpenGL :-).
P.S. I don't like DirectX
Oh and Michael please click on my google ads! there the best around! :-D
