John Carmack Denies Quake Was Written By Extraterrestrials THE INTERNET - The Internet gaming community was shocked by the slanderous remarks made last Monday by Jonathan McKinley, webmaster of The Wonder of Aliens. According to McKinley's statement, id Software's popular Quake videogame was not written by id, or by any human for that matter, but by superior beings from another planet. An excerpt from TWoA: ![]() ![]() Some poor misguided soul at unbalanced.org has decided, unilaterally, that I and id Software (by association), are lying about the origins of the Quake engine, that it was written by extraterrestrials. I think I can safely say this individual is an absolute wacko. The public arguments raged on for several days, until they ended abruptly with the death of Jonathan McKinley, who was killed in a car accident last night. McKinley's house was also burned to the ground by arsonists on the same night, destroying any evidence he claimed to have. Similarly, the unbalanced.org web server was hacked into and The Wonder of Aliens website was erased, though all other data were left intact. The FBI refused to comment. |
