	Roman Ball Games (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
		Pila was the term used for ball playing in general, but is here used to define the circular version of harpasta, which may have been the most popular ball game in Roman times.
		The ancient Egyptians actually played a game in which a ball was struck with a bat and two players would attempt to catch it, but this game either faded or became the cricket-like game of the Romans.
		They even had a glass ball and a ball of stone the size of a bowling ball was found in Pompeii.

		The latter game, hop-ball, may be the game that we herein call Roman Ball, named in honor of the Romans and in lieu of any further evidence that this game actually existed.
		Since the ball must bounce in the center circle, it could be described as "hopping." Alternatively, having experimented at length, we find that players must often jump or "hop" to catch the ball, as it tends to fly over their heads.
		Balls bounce better on concrete, and chalk works for the circles, but diving for the ball is definitely out of the question, at least without wearing pads.

	Ball game - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		There are many popular games or sports involving some type of ball or similar object.
		These games can be grouped by the general objective of the game, sometimes indicating a common origin either of a game itself or of its basic idea:

	Bat and Ball Games - Online Guide
		The story goes that milkmaids started the game by throwing stones at their upturned stools while waiting for their shepherd husbands to return from the fields where they were passing the time throwing stones at "wicket gates", a kind of field gate.
		The game had dwindled almost to non-existence at the beginning of the twentieth century, being played by just a handful of pubs but in 1922, it was rekindled when a group of pubs, Ye Old Beverlie amongst them, created the Canterbury and District Bat and Trap League.
		Normally, the ball bounces once or twice before doing this and is fielded by a member of the opposing side who stand in a line just behind and between the posts.

		If the ball does go between somebody’s legs they are 'out' but remain standing in their position legs apart with arms folded or on their head.
		Ball is thrown between players on the outside across the circle (may not go around it).

	Camp and Stickball Games
		With the introduction of sticks, the game was altered and became the forerunner of all the common stick-ball games including, rounders, baseball, tennis, shinty, bandy, hurley, ground hockey and cricket.
		The ball used in Hurley, known as a 'sliotar', looks much like a baseball, except that it is cork lined and the stitching is directed toward the outside as the edges of the leather pieces are folded outward rather than inward as on a baseball.
		Since the hitting or striking of the ball in the game of Hurley is referred to as 'a puck', or 'pucking the ball', it was natural for the new wooden disc to be called a "puck".

		The object of the game is to throw one of the balls between the legs of any player before they can get their hands down and stop it.
		A goal is scored against them if the ball hits the wall behind the defenders at knee level or below, or if the defenders must break their grip on each other in order to kick the ball away.
		If the ball bounces more than once into someone’s square, they are out of the game and either the square is left empty or you rotate a new player.

	How to Play Town Ball & Other Different Old Ball Games for Boys
		Every time the ball touches the bat it is considered a fair hit, and the batter must run for his first corner and reach it, if possible, before some fielder, the catcher, or giver secures the ball and "burns" or "stings" him, as they call it when they hit a player with the ball.
		If a striker sends a ball in the air and it is caught before it touches the ground by the giver, the catcher, or any one of the fielders, the batter is out.
		If the ball touches his bat it is counted a hit, and if it is caught by any one of the opposite side he is out.

		They may well be right, as the description, given originally by John Norris, fits neither game as we know it to-day, although the terms 'bord' and 'cord', which refer to the line traced across the lower part of the wall, survive in modern Fives and squash.
		So they agreed to play for half a crown a game and a bottle of cider.' Needless to say Cavanagh's opponent could not take a game from the champion, but not recognising him, perserved until the inevitable conclusion was reached and Cavanagh's identity revealed.
		The game of single-walled Fives suffered a catastrophic decline shortly after, if not as a direct result of Cavanagh's death, but it survived in the public schools.

	The Baseball Analysts: Ball Games
		As I got older, Swing the Bats turned into wiffle ball and games using ping pong balls and the orange 76 Union balls (that were meant to be placed atop the radio antennas on cars for identification purposes) as the baseballs of choice.
		And that was it for the wiffle ball game on the island.
		When we were kids we played a two person game that consisted of a sock stuffed with one page of newspaper,wound tightly and then wrapped into itself (this was the ball) and a broom stick (the bat).

	Dragon Ball GT: Transformation for Game Boy Advance Review - Game Boy Advance Dragon Ball GT: Transformation Review
		Dragon Ball GT: Transformation is a Final Fight-style beat-'em-up set in the universe of the popular Dragon Ball GT cartoon series.
		The game doesn't bring anything new to the this genre, but its rock-solid design and succulent visuals should be more than enough to satisfy Dragon Ball fans that are looking for some on-the-go butt-kicking.
		The main thing to keep in mind when you play is that when a team member runs out of health, he or she is put out of commission for the rest of the level.

	Dragon Ball Games - Goodbye...?
		Of course I've been working on the game but I guess the little progress I've made just sort of got lost in the shuffle.
		Fun stuff and the game itself is pretty good and seeing as how it's probably something like $5-$10it's worth picking up for a mild diversion.
		Work on the game is sort of at a lull with with pondering on what i should do next, keep working on monster battle animations, finish the character ones, or move onto desiging the next towns.
