Quakecon 2010 Announced! March 5, 2010

Shacknews has reported that one of the longest running fan friendly gaming conventions will be from August 12th to August 15th this year.  According to teases from last year, Rage and Doom 4, two games that haven’t been reported on in a while,  are expected to make appearances at the show.

There was some concern since id Software is no longer operating independantly if this convention would continue.  Quakecon originally was entirely fan created, but at some point id took it over and for some years it’s rivaled E3 with the announcments that’s come out of it.  It has continued to be a mecca for id fans for years, and from the looks of it, that will continue.

Unfortunatly I have never been to a Quakecon before.  It seems a common occurance that all major gaming conventions would happen anywhere but wherever I lived.  If I do get to go to this year’s Quakecon I will be sure to report on everything I see.
