Continuing with RAGE’s series of behind-the-scenes looks the developers at id Software discuss the themes, inspirations and innovations that will hopefully make the world of RAGE one of the most awe-inspiring the industry has ever seen. They’d also like to let you in on how a certain character from The Big Lebowski made his way into the game.

As gamers of this generation we are susceptible to occasionally take for granted the amount of work that goes into crafting the ambiance of today’s AAA titles so it’s nice to get a look at the process development studios go through to properly apply the oh so important layers of polish.

For more information on RAGE check out a look at the game’s arsenal, an extended gameplay trailer and the latest trailer.
