My skills, and slight interest, in games doesn't extend much beyond
Tetris and Pacman (haven't seen one to rival Deluxe Pacman on the Amiga,
it's fun, funny, quite pretty, and playable).  

Most of the AI games remind me of disturbing ants.  You can influence
them to do something, but not actually control them.  

It's a similar thing with the modern 3D reality, or fantasy, games, it
does all sorts of things by itself while you nudge it about.  Plus, I
feel seasick watching the view whiz about.
