I only beg the question, is AI pointless? Have gamers decided that a computer, at least eventually, will be able to out think and outwit a human mind every time? If so then what is the point of playing against an infallible (lol) machine. We should instead concentrate on conquering humans (so to speak). I love online play and consider it the quintessential place for a real challenge. If developers want to concentrate on multiplayer, and consider single player "extra" then so be it.
