Tangentially related to the previous post, this 8-minute video from CrowBranch is a fun tier list of various ways games try to keep you in bounds:

The limits here are I believe unrelated to precision, and rather to wanting to keep the player within a controlled, designed environment. (We once covered a story of this backfiring horribly, and also talked about skyboxes and streaming.)

The video also made me want to see people – especially designers with less experience slash less baggage than I have – doing a tier list of e.g. common interface elements. Or maybe I should make such a video…
