An AI Coach for Bad Gamers?

newchurch writes "In this week's "Gaming in 2020" issue of The Escapist, Chris Dahlen writes about a no-talent gamer who gets help from the 'Nintendo Coach' - an AI installed in the console that watches him play and gives him pointers and feedback. This is set 14 years in the future, but how hard would it really be for a next-gen console to pull this off? Would gamers want this kind of thing, to make them more competitive or just to help them master a title like Ninja Gaiden? And would your average gamers even admit they need help?"

    I'm not a grammar nazi or anything, but I have to ask - is punctuation against your religion or something?

    Seriously, give us poor readers a hand. I've tried to make sense of your comment for a couple of seconds, and by the time I started re-reading the entire thing I just gave up.

    Honestly - how do you expect to actuaclly be able to communicate with anyone?
