I can see what you're trying to say, but we've only really gotten 1 gameplay video with very little enemies.  You can't make a final judgement based on that alone.  Onto a different route, some guy mentioned A.I getting on their knees begging being unique to this game.  When in fact I found the same A.I reaction in Assassins creed when the main player picks off both his friends. But yeah this A.I looks pretty good. Anything is better than the A.I Fallout3/NV had. On a side note I want to make a thread about stupid crap A.I does now.

 

We've had the E3 playthrough as well. It's the same part of the game but it plays out completly differently

(I'm not sure if when you say " only really gotten 1" you're actually referring to the fact that we've only seen one part of the game. If that's the case then disregard this, but i thought i'd mention it just in case :)). 

I was completly blown away by the AI personally. Not so much in the way of "look at all the ways they can out smart the player" or "look at how effective they are at playing the game" but they just seem so much more like real people in comparison to anything else i've played. I think it's mainly to do with the contextual dialouge. 

Maybe it could be argued that saying  " the NPC's are impressive" as opposed to "the AI is impressive" is more accurate. Since i think it's a combination of the AI, dialouge and animation that seems to make them so lifelike. (Well lifelike in my eyes anyway).
