sounds very impressive. I was purhaps going to post it myself.
The editor alone is enough to sell a game imo. Good competition for UE3.

Thanks! Interesting to see how he thinks mobile phones are a relatively risk free way of trying out new ideas.
He goes on for about an hour.
The new game 'Rage' looks very pretty. Too bad its a racing game though, Id really like to shoot that guy with the rice hat.
I found it very interesting when he was talking about the pros and cons of doing simultaneous release (PC, 360 and PS3) of a game. Basically if you plan to support multiple platforms you pretty much have to do a simultaneous release. And apparently the PS3 is very difficult to develop for, compared to the 360 (and of course the PC). Putting this all together, this means that if a game is coming out for both the PC and the PS3, the PC people have to wait up to a year extra to play it even when the PC version is finished, just because the PS3 has such a long development time.
I guess Ill just add this to my list of reasons why I hate consoles.

If you watch that I get the impression you might be able to shoot the guy in the rice hat =p.

Carmack reminds me of
To me he seems more like Ritchie Cunningham (from Happy Days). Just the voice really (minus the speech impediment)
[edit]
I just started watching the keynote ... what happened to Carmack's speech impediment? He used to make a 'mmm' sound at the end of certain sentences.
