Gabe has charisma...

[infin|ty]

I don't even know what it is about the man, but he appeals to me. Not in a homosexual way, but in a very "Wow, that guy rocks" kinda way. In all his interviews he's so - to the point. No bullshit. Plus he's got that hardcore coder, geek vibe. I don't know what to say. I think he makes Carmack look like Osama.

 

[crabcakes66]

Well i dont exactly feel like you....


But it would be cool to spend a day with him or something....atleast meet him.

 

[Kuros]

Carmack is certainly more "hardcore" and "geeky" than Gabe is.
But I agree, Gabe is cute. :E

 

[nsxownzme]

Aw you guys are cute.

 

[infin|ty]

I think Gabe will take over the earth while Carmack flys around in shuttles and trys to take over mars.

 

[Tork]

Insert geek laugh (here)

Gabe or Carmack , who is more geeky ? Hmmm , this is a hard one. Gabe has more of a Geeky look. Will Wright is also very geeky , Carmack too.

 

[eediot]

What are you smoking, guys?

Carmack WHO??!?!?

Gabe. Gabe. Gabe. GABE. GABE. GABE! GABE GABE!!!!!



GAAAAABBBBBEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You must have never really seen John Carmack.

He's got to be the textbook definition of a geek, minus the pocket protector.

 

[Tork]

Ive seen him , yes hes VERY Geeky , but compared to Gabe and the new interview pics. Gabe wins lol. The last picture of Carmack i saw he was not so geeky. His older pictures like couple of years ago carmack would of won.

 

[Adam]

Carmack looks like Avatar-X.
A programmer who first created the gravity like gun seen in HL2 as a server mod for TFC. Although the HL2 one puts his to shame lol. But atleast he could clone objects with his gun lol. Those of you familiar with "TheSillyZone" server will understand.

 

[Kamakiri]

Carmack - Pride
Gabe - Humble

That's the difference. Flame as you will.

Though having some pride is good. I guess.

 

[Gordon'sFreeman]

You guys need to get out more...

 

[Stingey]

Carmack is just a general of the Gabe Newwel Virtual Army!
:cheers: :cheers:

 

[Guest]

Keep in mind Carmack bashers, that if Carmack was not here, neither would Gabe be.

[Foggy]

I Bet Gabe is reading this and the wholo Valve team is laughing like hell! Muhahahah ! Gabe Rulez!

 

[Nuclear_Gerber]

gabe is certenly bigger than carmack.

 

[Mackan]

i wonder who of them would win in a mudwrestling match?

 

[zitbug]

I think Gabe would slip and fall on top of Carmack.

Then Gabe would fahrt and Carmack would feint and die....

Haahahaahahahaha! :cheese:

 

[bastard_loud]

Gabe could deffo kick John's ass.

 

[Demonmerc]

He still needs to go to fat camp.

 

[Mackan]

well hello there mister sensitive

 

[Gorgon]

We need a Gabe model in HL2 MP.

 

[JavaGuy]

Gabe - Excellent PR with his customers, and apparently running a very tight and cohesive team.

Carmack - Makes games solely as a mental excersise for himself, and does very little to attempt to appeal to what's currently in demand.

My two cents.

 

[FluxCap]

Celebrity deathmatch needs to be done.

 

[Steven Q Urkle]

pfft, Derek Smart would own them both

 

[Sunbeam]

Tell me how much u love him after the soon to be announced delay of HL2. Oh and btw, he sends his affection right back at ya by releasing the benchmark on Sept 30th to the press, and not to u.

 

[Typhon]

will wright is by far the geekiest.

and hooray for the quick reply box again.

Oh my... it's getting close to Sept 30th and they haven't told us yet today that the release date isn't changed...

I bet they are going to delay it until 2005.

Thank God such an incredibly informed and respectable person as yourself brought this to my attention.

I have lost all faith in Valve. I am going to boycott HL2 when it comes out in 2005. I suggest you all do the same.

Carmack is Gabe's father?

 

[Mackan]

i think gabe is the son of carmack and romero..
think of it, it makes sense.. thats where he got his l33t programing skills from

go baby go

 

[OCybrManO]

... and both of his parents (Romero being the mother) having plenty of cash led to his obesity?

 

[Mackan]

nah i think its because he got alot of left-over fastfood and coke from his parents.. them being game programers and all

 

[OCybrManO]

I'm on a "programmer's diet" but I'm not overweight... maybe Carmack and Romero have recessive fat genes.
