Two New Servers in Free Realms

With the popularity of Sony Free Realms this past week, they had to open up new servers for a total now of 8. Today was the busiest day they have seen yet and had to bring online 2 new servers to keep up with the new users trying the game out.

Way to go Free Realms.

Also, I found out some neat coding tid bits

For their Collision detection they use the Bullets Physics Library.

We're using Bullet collision & dynamics.We use it for our character controller (our own custom one), line of sight checks, and so forth as well as for vehicle physics in the Racing and Demolition Derby instances.Check out the beta here. Go sign up, we are letting people into the beta in waves over the next week or so.
