Actually, sctratch that, when i do play, it's more like an addiction.<br><br>Recently acquired a PS2, and my latest addiction is 'God of War'. It's bloody awesome. If you haven't played it yet, which is highly unlikely, do so now.<br><br>Shadow of the Colossus is next.<br><br>Oh, and thanks so much for putting me on to 'Out of Order'. I love a good adventure game, and that was brilliant!! I found it through this blog.

I had recently been to GDC and had attended the making of Shadow of Colossus. They have done some very interesting stuff with the mechanics of he game itself especially the animation system. The animation system is partially build i=on IK mechanics which allows the animations to adapt to the environment and gameplay mechanics.srinihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04079566536988099056noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2579273196566028677.post-5488962320164205142006-12-22T01:32:00.000-08:002006-12-22T01:32:00.000-08:00Old timer, I surely am.

I realised the that they require exactly the same amount of voltage (two 1.5V batteries) and it didn't matter if it was button size or AA size.
