John Carmack, one of the leading video game designers of the current generation, is praising both the Xbox One from Microsoft and the PlayStation 4 for the quality of their engineering.

In a Twitter message quoted by NeoGAF, the developer states, “They are both solid piece of engineering. I won’t recommend one over the other at this point.”

Carmack is best known for his work on Quake and Doom and is currently more involved with the development of game engines that id Software is using.

Both the Xbox One and the PlayStation 4 are set to be launched before the end of the year.

id Software and publisher Bethesda are probably already working on a new title for them.

The development team has announced that Doom 4 is in development and might be linked to next-gen consoles.
