Around 2pm CST on Thursday the 12th August, the exhibit hall at QuakeCon 2010 began to empty out as gamers headed to the hotel’s Grand Ballroom to check out the latest demo of id Software’s hotly anticipated first-person shooter, RAGE.

Massive cheers erupted from the audience when the PC loaded the level in a fraction of the time it took the consoles to do so. Read more at TweakTown.
