I have known John Carmack since 1993 when I first played Doom :) Interestingly, I played Wolfenstein after Doom, waiting for Doom II. I am an FPS fan since then. I also knew John Romero as much too. I had a 3 year architecture education though never graduated, and we used to study his 3D Designs in Doom and Quake while Computer Major friends were trying to reverse engineer the codes John Carmack had written! Both guys were legends back on college days, as two of the most influensive figures of PC gaming.

Its a pity that John Romore had to leave ID Software after Quake, stating "He (Carmack) wants to make a state of the art engine while I want to make games". He was sorta right I reckon, why? Because Quake was a peace of art and a great game with Romero as the lead designer, but Quake 2 and especially Quake 3 were great technology demos and game engines but no good games.
