I believe Unreal Tournament featured something called adaptive difficulty (Not sure if that’s the correct name). Instead of setting a difficulty level the game itself would adjust the skill level of the bots to ensure that the player encountered enemies that almost matched his or her skill. So this weeks question is this:
Do you prefer having a pre-defined or adaptive difficulty setting?
About I’m fascinated by chase scenes in movies and real life. My fascination comes from the decision making process.

I think it was Asimov that wrote a short story that featured a scientist who used a multi-vac super computer (Cool name, huh?) to research jokes. I’m sorry to spoil the story for you but the outcome was that jokes were an alien experiment on humankind.

I’m a little embarrassed because this week’s poll is very, very similar to the one currently on ModDB.com! In my defense the actual poll was decided on a while ago. Anyway, onto this week’s question.
What the most important aspect in a great Single Player Game?

About This map was specifically constructed to display unused content for Half-Life: Source and as such requires Half-Life: Source to be viewed. There are no enemies to fight against, it’s just a museum-type map. There is a Gman who speaks, and I don’t recall hearing those words.

I don’t spend as long playing games as I used to, partly because my eyes get tired (Yes I have the correct glasses!) and partly because I get a little bored. Gone are the days of whole afternoons and evening passing in running and shooting. But what about you?
How long do your normal SP gaming sessions last?
