^ Has missed out!
< WILL explain what it is :D
v May appreciate the explanation.

The Animatrix was a series of animated short films, released between the first film and the second two, that were various stories in the world of the Matrix - some more artistic, some more gritty and grounded. The one I mentioned by name tells how the crew of the hovercraft Osiris discovered the machines preparing to dig into Zion and managed to pass on the message inside the Matrix (to be discovered by Niobe) - at the cost of their lives. Another called “Kid’s Story” tells about the character of the Kid from the Matrix Reloaded/Revolutions and how he was able to achieve self-substantiation (freeing himself felt the Matrix), though he considers it to be Neo’s actions and not his own.

^ Has clearly missed out on a classic D&D RPG game from back in the day :D It actually used the 2nd Edition rules for character stuff (weapons, armour, stats and stuff) if I remember correctly, modified so you can fight in real time. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baldur's_Gate
< Is on a real D&D kick at the moment...
v Has read the latest Order of the Stick
