Welcome to Shacknews! For those unfamiliar with the history of this website, we started out as a fan site for all things Quake. We were the great Quakeholio! So whenever QuakeCon rolls around, it's a special occasion for this website. If you missed the news, QuakeCon At Home is going down right now and what that means for you is that everything Bethesda is on sale this weekend. That includes the DOOM franchise, the Fallout franchise, the Wolfenstein franchise, and, yes indeed, the Quake franchise. You can find sales on Steam, GOG.com, Fanatical, Green Man Gaming, Gamersgate, and even Bethesda's own website.

Ozzie has been playing video games since picking up his first NES controller at age 5. He has been into games ever since, only briefly stepping away during his college years. But he was pulled back in after spending years in QA circles for both THQ and Activision, mostly spending time helping to push forward the Guitar Hero series at its peak. Ozzie has become a big fan of platformers, puzzle games, shooters, and RPGs, just to name a few genres, but he’s also a huge sucker for anything with a good, compelling narrative behind it. Because what are video games if you can't enjoy a good story with a fresh Cherry Coke?
