It is these principles of reality that an imaginative bunch of game developers are most interested in. Over the last three years we have seen in-game physics effects grow by leaps and bounds. We’ve gone from holy unrealistic interactions between objects in a world in games such as DOOM and even Counter-Strike, to games like Half-Life 2 and the upcoming Unreal Tournament 2007, where realistic physics take the main stage. It is upon this reflection that I can’t help but sit back and be very proud of the game developers who, in about seven years, have been able to go from cartoon-looking worlds to some of the most realistic environments ever produced on screen. I blame physics..
