Bethesda has released a patch for id's latest shooter, RAGE, fixing a number of bugs and adding graphics engine settings "due to popular demand."
Legendary gaming pioneer John Carmack enraged a number of PC gaming faithful by saying: "We do not see the PC as the leading platform for games" and describing problems with video drivers "a real cluster !@#$."
"We knew that all older AMD drivers, and some Nvidia drivers would have problems with the game, but we were running well in-house on all of our test systems. When launch day came around and the wrong driver got released, half of our PC customers got a product that basically didn't work," Carmack told Kotaku (http://kotaku.com/5847761/why-was-the-pc-launch-of-rage-such-a-cluster).
