Havok Team Interviewed

Chris writes "There's an interview up with the Havok Team on FileFront, talking to Chief Technology Officer Steve Collins about his company's physics engine. Questions are about development of the engine, getting developer support and the demands they have, and research. The Havok physics engine is responsible for allowing players to lob toliet bowls at unsuspecting Combine in Valve's Half-Life 2 and powers several other popular titles." From the article: "the realistic portrayal of characters is what we hope will define the next generation of games. You're going to see a lot more soft-body dynamics, hair dynamics, clothing simulation and all that cool stuff."

"Q: Could the engine be perfected, theoretically, to correctly display how the fat bounces around on a really fat woman during sex?"
