It was basically just a nerdy reference, double that up with the fact that Romero lives in Ireland (which is where that scene was shot) and it's also a teaser because no-one knew A. Carmack was involved...

I dunno, I think Romero learned some big lessons with Daikatana. 
 
Didn't Carmack have an hotel or something like that in Ireland as well? 
Yes 
5-star Heritage Golf & Spa Resort in Killenard. 
I Dunno 
it's not very quakey, but could be a cool map I guess. 
 
Romero is way past Daikatana. He's been focusing a lot on Doom 1 & Doom II stuff for the last� couple years?

He's going back to his id roots, reviewing classic fps design and getting inspiration from the classic Doom communities.

Whatever his new game is, it should be fun. 
He Even Made An ARG

Quake Hit Top 25 On Gog 
Quake: the Offering hit position 25 in Gog's list of popular games. It is currently on sale as part of the Quake I, II and III bundle and by itself.

I'm not sure how popularity is calculated for the rankings, but I assume it's based on the recent sales numbers. I think it's pretty great if new people are still getting into Quake I, perhaps influenced by the recent mod releases :)

I took a screencap. There it is, in the bottom right corner.

BTW these are being posted in the SA "Early FPS" thread... the guy has lots of super-nostalgia-bomb magazine scans.

If you have SA forums access (or if the Games forum is currently un-paywalled) you can see all his posts at http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3420790&userid=167046 ... he starts posting scans on March 27 (page 9 of his posts).

Thanks czg, I've saved 36 pages of Quake-related stuff from that album. Will upload it later. 
 
Here's the 36 Quake-related pages: PC Zone magazine scans

That imgur album also has a Quake 2 article, but I haven't included it. 
 
Are there some cool Quake demos for protocol 666? 
Crystallize 
Whu? 
 
Lol That Hippie Get Me To Download A Warez Copy 
 
WTF 2 
Apple Music? 
Isn't that the one that removes unrecognised audio files from your harddrive and replaces wavs with mp3s? 
Wouldn't Suprise Me 
iTunes is pretty crazy too.

But Steam's update policy - what a pile of shit.
No matter what i try, i can't get around it f-ing me over with my slow connection.
Just let me play the game for fucks sake.

Anyway - nearly finished Back to Bed.

Meh... decent puzzler. Had to go online to cheat level 14 but i should have sussed it out.

Oh how nice! I got a credit in that video! My name is on screen at 59:31. Great success. 
Are There Quake Engines (or Quake Based Games) 
that allow multiple mods? 
This Was Asked Just Recently Somewhere On These Forums 
It depends what you mean by that. Some engines support layering game directory on top of each other.

FTEQW can probably merge bytecode hex patterns with deep neural learning convolving networks.
