Real-time physics in video games has been a key game changer, not only since the massive success of Half Life 2 back in 2004. Today’s video games can’t be imagined anymore without life-like behaving characters, physical interaction of the player and destructible environments. In view of increasingly powerful mobile devices and the seemingly unlimited power of cloud-based computing, what does this mean for tomorrow’s mobile, tablet and online games? This talk will take the audience on a history tour of physics in gaming and will dare a look into the crystal ball on what might glow at the horizon.
