IT was very clever. Made me laugh. Thanks!
Now I have to get all down and dirty with it: I think that guy (who wrote the article) was putting too much pressure on the gaming corporations. Don't we all want to fix the bitty little problems in our games? Dont we all want a realistic, human-like, intelligent game? WE all do. But its not important enough for us to really care. I think this guy is way too serious about the little problems which we encounter now and then. Ive had all the same problems in the past. But I dont let it all ruin my gaming experience completely. Also, these game upgrades are very advanced and expensive for game corporations to develop. AI which learns? Dont make me laugh. The hard-drive that kind of program would take up is unthinkable. But maybe in the future we can improve these little, annoying chips on our collective shoulder.  |

bots in multiplayer scenarios show how hard it is to get realistic behaviour! i think they could work on better 'tricks' that wouldnt be so demanding. like having them duck into cover shouldnt be THAT hard to pull off. the enemies in original half life have a decent go at doing that. he's right to be annoyed that modern games sometimes just have 'rambo' enemies |

One of the very big and very real problems that he touches on in the article is patches. If they start making patches available for consoles, the quality of console games (when released) will without a doubt deteriorate very, very fast, since programmers no longer have to finish the games before releasing them. They can always do that later on with a patch, if the game sells well. If it doesn't; well, that's just just too bad for all the people who did buy it. This is common practice with PC games, and has been annoying the hell out of me for years.

Yeah good point, I really hope that we don't see patches for the next-gen versions of consoles but still it looks like it'll probably happen which is sad to see.

I like too mch the article! It's a shame that there isn't a place to sign... i agree totally with which the guy said in that Gamer's Manifesto!
I think that in the next future the AI is not going to be better, because seems that the 3D graphic is enough to sell...

I totally agree with that manifesto, and I hope the gaming industry will change in the future...
