The computer is predictable in many ways, and it doesn't fuck up the way people do. My son is all into the fanciest of skill moves and such and says that basic moves don't cut it against the AI at a certain level. I have a lot fewer skill moves in my repertoire, but I use those a lot better in real games. You don't need to over complicate things when playing other players. 🙂
Now though, I occasionally come across some of the top guys, I think; they have a whole heap of skill moves, and they are really, really good at using them too. Fucking nightmare to play against, and timely reminders that I am far from the dog's bollocks. 🙁
