At the QuakeCon 2009, Bethesda's Todd Howard gave a surprising (?) announcement that there is no Elder Scrolls V in development. "Currently," at least.

There's a lot that went on for Microsoft this week. Not only did they game assets/ data revealed, they also have movie adaptations of their games to look forward to, as well as new online features for the XBL. And what's this? A hundred bucks' worth of price cut on the Elite unit? Maybe that's why they're not too worried about the rumored PS3 price cut, cos they're gonna get a headstart on it? We'll see when it happens. But in the meantime, catch all of that and more in this issue of the Xbox 360 Weekend Warrior.

The anonymous Space Marine from the Doom series is ready to kick demon butt once again on Xbox 360s. A new XBLA version of Doom 2 has just recently been spotted on the show floor at QuakeCon.

Publisher Activision has confirmed that Raven Software's Wolfenstein will not be meeting its August 4 launch. Instead, the game's has been pushed back by two weeks, giving Nazis some extra time before B.J. Blazkowicz starts hunting them down. Details after the jump.

Now that id Software has been acquired by ZeniMax, the veteran game studio is using some of the extra cash by putting together a new development team. More after the jump.

The number four comes after three, right? Normally, yes. In the world of video games, however, it's not necessarily the case. Developers have taken on the "because I said so" school of thought in naming games, and id Software is among the best pupils of the philosophy. More in the full article.

At id Software's QuakeCon, John Carmack stole the show with a rather perplexing announcement: the iconic programmer predicted that the Xbox 360 version of their upcoming shooter Rage will look worse than the PC, PlayStation 3 and Mac versions. Find out why in the full article up next.

QuakeCon is back this 2008! Spurred by the success of last year's conference, QuakeCon will again host a string of events in Dallas, Texas. Who knows what announcement id Software will bring us this time? And most importantly, when will this event take place? Get more details of QuakeCon 2008 over the full article.

Ever since the game's unveiling at QuakeCon 2007, RAGE (PC, possibly multi-platform) has definitely become a technological feat worthy of its namesake. And although some roughed out details are now getting smoothed out, we've learned very little from the game's story or settings, or what id hopes to accomplish with the game.

id Software's Creative Director, Tim Willits, sat down with GameTrailers TV to expound on these particular issues, clarifying some gameplay separation between the gun-toting and gas-pedalling. It appears that the FPS-racing mix is a blend of modes integrated into one single mode, but the shooting mode seems separate from the desert racing. Willits gave the focus as 60% for FPS and 40% for racing, but since the game is still in development, a lot could change.

The pioneers of first-person shooters will be tying their games back down to the essentials: all-around fun, good versus evil plots, and arcade-action ease. And although this game has been fully confirmed for the PC (thus tying the Mac into the mix), the title was hinted to go "multi-platform" (hence the mention of it in the video) - minus the specifics.

QuakeCon is proving to be one hell of a ride so far and one of the highlights of this big bash is the unveiling of the new Enemy Territory: Quake Wars trailer. When you want to talk about making an impression, you don't look any further than this clip. Have a look:

Not a lot of games have the honor of following a franchise that defines a genre, but this one has the distinction of walking up to two sets of golden footsteps. For one, it's a follow up to Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory, but it's also set in the same universe as Quake II and Quake 4. A bit confusing? You'll have to wait to see everything come together.

These colliding worlds will take place on the PC and rivalling platforms Sony PlayStation 3 and Microsoft Xbox 360. Similar to Quake III Arena, it focuses on multiplayer gameplay. Bots can be added to enrich the fun with huge maps, aircraft and vehicles.
