The loo. The john. The washroom. The gents (or ladies). Whatever you call it, it's the place everyone has to go. But what if you're a game character? While game developers have figured out that, like real life, the toilet is just as important in the virtual world, it seems like the heroes and heroines like the sassy spy Cate Archer of No One Lives Forever fame or Black Mesa's survivor Gordon Freeman from Half-Life are too busy saving the world than to relieve themselves. Regardless, the loos in games are still painstakingly rendered, albeit in varying details. This Russian site contains a gallery of virtual toilets one encounters in a game.
