    Uhg my pong code I scavenged from the forums quickly went from 6 simple source files to 18 files total including headers.
    Sometimes I forget what I am doing when I enter a room, actually, quite often.

    UPDATE:

    Managed to abstract the ball and paddle classes into the "Renderable_Object" class.

    Code:
    #ifndef RENDERABLE_OBJECT_H
    #define RENDERABLE_OBJECT_H
    #include "Vector2.h"
    class Renderable_Object
    {
    public:
    	Vector2 & getVelocity()
    	{
    		return velocity;
    	}
    	Vector2 & getPosition()
    	{
    		return position;
    	}
    	Vector2 & getMinimum()
    	{
    		return d_min;
    	}
    	Vector2 & getMaximum()
    	{
    		return d_max;
    	}
    private:
    	Vector2 position;
    	Vector2 velocity;
    	Vector2 d_min;
    	Vector2 d_max;
    	bool isPhysical;
    	bool isVisible;
    };
    
    #endif
    Which now allows me to centralize the rendering process, like so!

    Code:
    #include "Renderable_Object.h"
    
    class Renderer
    {
    	void draw(Renderable_Object object)
    	{
    		glPushMatrix();
    		glTranslatef(object.getPosition().x,object.getPosition().y,-50.0f);
    		glBegin(GL_QUADS);						// Start Drawing Quads
    			glVertex3f(object.getMinimum().x, object.getMinimum().y,  1.0f);	// Bottom Left Of The Texture and Quad
    			glVertex3f( object.getMaximum().x, object.getMinimum().y,  1.0f);	// Bottom Right Of The Texture and Quad
    			glVertex3f( object.getMaximum().x,  object.getMaximum().y,  1.0f);	// Top Right Of The Texture and Quad
    			glVertex3f(object.getMinimum().x,  object.getMaximum().y,  1.0f);	// Top Left Of The Texture and Quad
    		glEnd();
    		glPopMatrix();
    	}
    };
    I just eliminated 4 useless files and 2 classes! HURRAH!
