"ZeniMax Media Acquires id Software

Brings together two of world’s best game studios

Library of powerhouse franchises will include DOOM, Fallout, The Elder Scrolls, QUAKE, Wolfenstein and RAGE..."
This is amazing! This press release was put out on June 24th, but I just found it. I am speechless. What this means to me as an avid computer gamer is that the "grandfather" (Doom, Quake)of my favorite type of gaming and it's "very hip teenaged grandson" (Fallout 3, Oblivion) are now working together in perfect unison!

id Software perfected and made popular, the first person shooter style of gameplay on the PC, especially when it came to online competitive play. ZeniMax Media (Bethesda Softworks) has perfected the first person roleplaying game. I look forward to seeing the newer titles Bethesda puts out!
