QuakeCon 2007 Coverage

The Crew from HotHardware.com posted their coverage of this year’s QuakeCon.

“This past weekend marked the twelfth anniversary of a gaming event started by a group of die hard Quake players in suburban Dallas, Texas. Evolving and growing rapidly since its grass roots founding, Quakecon has become the largest LAN gaming event in the United States, with over 3000 gamers attending, some from places as far as Japan, Iraq, and Finland. Put on by id Software with their main sponsor NVIDIA, this yearâ€™s Quakecon was filled with gaming tournaments, vendor exhibitors, and new gaming announcements, but the heart of the event was the bring-your-own-computer area, or the BYOC.”

They did a pretty good coverage, since they didn’t leave out the infamous
“Frag Dolls” :)

You better get down there and check out their article, with some nice pictures,
including the Case Contest’s winners..
