However, graphical excellence is now the norm rather than the exception, and so other technologies are coming to the fore as developers strive to make their games stand out in an ever more crowded market. Sophisticated artificial intelligence (AI) is one such technology which is now receiving a large share of game development effort as game designers attempt to create more believable computer controlled characters.
