Here are the beginnings of QuakeCon's massive "bring your own computer" LAN party. They say you could turn off all the lamps and monitors and still find your way by the LED case lighting

Good lord, that's enough Bawls Guarana to kill a herd of elephants. Still, better than the shame of being the first person to fall asleep at a LAN party.

I got a BA in journalism from Central Michigan University - though the best education I received there was from CM Life, its student-run newspaper. Long before that, I started pursuing my degree in video games by bugging my older brother to let me play Zelda on the Super Nintendo. I've previously been a news intern for GameSpot, a news writer for CVG, and now I'm a staff writer here at GamesRadar.

QuakeCon's yearly celebration of all-night deathmatch sessions, impractical-yet-cool cool case mods, and exclusive game announcements has begun. GR+'s David Houghton is on the ground in Dallas, Texas to check things out, and while things are just getting started at the Hilton Anatole, you can already get a feel for what's about to go down from these early pictures he sent back.

The obvious stars of the show are Fallout 4, which will have an attendees-only demo from game director Todd Howard, and the new Doom. Considering that lineup and these pictures, the 20th year of QuakeCon may be its strongest yet - even if John Carmack isn't there to regale viewers with his traditional keynote speech / mental journey through optimistic techno jargon.
