Carmack & Stratton Quake Live interview at QuakeUnity.com
One day after the Quake Live public beta release, QuakeUnity published this interview with Marty Stratton, producer of QuakeLive and John Carmack, id Software's co-founder and lead programmer.
In this interview, John and Marty discuss several aspects of Quake Live such as backend infrastructure, their work with mod authors to bring additional features to the game and the hiring of developers from inside the Quake community.
Quake Live Public Beta Is Here!
As reported earlier this week, the Quake Live open beta is released today! The Quake Live closed beta website permanently shut down about 36 hours ago to prepare for the grand opening. All we could see these last few hours was a timer, slowly counting down to 0.
A lot of questions remained unanswered. The id software developers have done a great job teasing the community during the closed beta. Right before the site went offline, we were able to find a forum post by the developers, revealing very interesting information.

AGP tour plans on being Quake Live only
The AGP-Tour website is being finalized and in about two weeks the last stage of its beta phase will begin. Over at fragster.de an interview was published with Jarod Reisin, the CEO of AGP's "Quake only"-Tour.
For those of you who don't know what the AGP Tour exactly is,... don't worry, you're not alone. About a year ago the organizer Jarod Reisin announced the AGP Tour would organize tournaments for several 1v1 games, such as UT, Q4 and Q3 as well as cover them in a way that's not been done before.
Yet as soon as this news was released, the whole project just seemed to pretty much fall flat on it's butt. Today however it seems they are renewing this dream, yet now exclusively for Quake Live duels.
