      I'm always surprised at people who complain about AI in games. Sure, they're all pretty stupid, but writing that stuff is pretty complicated. Frankly, I'm amazed that the AI in most games is as good as it is. I mean, I doubt I could do better and I'm a reasonably intelligent fellow.

Just because the subject is a serious one (contrary to some supertough military wacko exploding alien's heads in dark corridors some 200 years in the future ), it shouldn't necessarily be treated with gravity and soberness. Ok, the talking leaderheads are goofy, but at the same time they're fun to look at.
        No, it would be called Championship Manager (and still sell by the shedload)
