Dead or Alive for the Dreamcast had jiggle physics. The "Age" slider was really a "bounce" slider.

You guys should check out this Aleksandr Svechin book "Strategy":
"Any struggle for one's interests can only become
sufficiently conscious and consistent when its goals have been clarified. Once they have been systematized, these goals form the program or idea of a given faction. These programs can sometimes be reconstructed only by a historian, while sometimes they exist in written form but are never proclaimed openly. Often they are proclaimed in an intentionally distorted form in order to make it possible to draw as many people as possible into a faction.
Organizations of individual factions for the purpose of struggling for a particular program are called political parties, because politics is the art of orienting a struggle for the purpose of carrying out the program of a certain faction. Because every program is based on economic interests and economics is the basis for a developing historical advance, we can see politics as a "concentrated expression of economics." Only movements which are based on real interests can acquire a major significance. Even such a nationalistic writer as General von der Goltz has admitted that pure patriotism is wet powder which is incapable of igniting the masses.
But politics is also the art of manipulating millions of people, and in fact, in a situation of opposition by other factions, politics will get the opportunity to take a direct route to its goal only under exceptionally favorable conditions, and quite often politics must wait it out, retreat and take roundabout paths and lead the masses in the process. The art of politics, which operates on the basis of a program which has already been developed, lies in pointing out immediate goals for specific work. Any politics which ignored these immediate goals and focused all its attention on the ultimate idea would be a pitiful degeneration of practical art into a sociology or philosophy of history. The imaginary logical line which connects the successive stages we are trying to reach and is oriented toward the ideal of the program is called a political line of conduct.
