The hard science of video games (56k warn)

[Teh Ganon]

Well I recently got the October 2007 issue of Popular Science magazine and they had what I thought was a rather interesting article. So I made some scans, enjoy.

Saw this in PopSci last week. Good read! Makes me fall in love with the industry even more.

Isn't that how you normally read? :P

But anyway, this is indeed a very enlightening topic. I didn't know of some of those limitations especially that liquid was THAT hard to mimic.

I always considered video game making as a career but I feel I lack the drive and logic-solving capabilites required for such a field.

*sigh*
