Did ID ever actually say in an article that it was going to look the same on all three platforms, pc, xbox and ps3? I'm asking because I never actually heard that before. I thought the pc was going to get higher rez textures than the consoles?

Well, when development on Rage began 6 years ago, consoles were actually pretty dang good. The fact that he failed to realize that the PC platform would continue to advance is disturbing to say the least.
At least he admits he was in the wrong.
I think he understands the gaming scene better than most of us do, it's not a failure to realize the problem, but a consciously made trade off, it financially makes sense to do lowest common denominator development while PC gamers are willing to buy consolized trash.
Man just browsing through this thread, it reminds me of Fallout games on that awful Gamebryo engine. Guess I'll wait until everything gets ironed out or the price significantly drops before I pick this game up.
The Gamebryo engine is a pain,no doubt about it. But the games themselves are still fun to play with the open world,RPG type gameplay. .
On PC, I've put hundreds of hrs into FO3 and New Vegas, and have also successfully modded New Vegas with a 7gig texture pack and there's no game stopping bugs, all the bugs are minor and of no consequence in my experience.
Amazing to read that after months of reading the likes of this:

Nothing but wall to wall focus on the consoles for this game. How important getting 60fps on the consoles was, etc. etc.
He REALLY didn't know going into it catering to the crappy console hardware a mistake? He's not that dumb.
New Vegas was definitely less bitchy for me but CTDs and such in FO3 are definitely game stoppers.
l.
So... regardless of any change in any config, it won't alter the 60 frame cap? I know that one could do such with Doom 3. I didn't realize that it didn't work with RAGE.
Honestly, they could have called this Borderlands 2 and i wouldn't have noticed....
There is WAY too much similarity...
. Doom 3 was antiquated when it came out, but Rage is positively prehistoric.

No, Borderlands was fun.
New ATI drivers with Rage fixes...no official xfire support yet though. Oh and XP review drivers as well!

He probably should have actually tried or read up on it instead of stating it like a fact.
No, Borderlands was fun.
Indeed. A favorite of mine.
I actually hated Borderlands due to all the reasons some people seem to be hating on this game.
Borderlands lacked the 'feel' that I expect out of a FPS. It felt clunky, and the tank viewing port FoV was horrible. Having to hit F8 everytime I got out of a vehicle or loaded up the game to force the FoV back to what I set it at was just stupid as well. I really just never enjoyed the game.
