    so ive noticed that some games your partners have bad ai. in gears of war 2 in the offline multiplayer, carmine generally is allways teh 1st to die. sheva in re5 was horrible, and some of the sc2 bots are bad as well. name others
     
    Army of Two, simply for the fact that it's a game where it's almost required for you to play with a real partner. It's a mediocre game by itself, but that's not really the point here.

    There's also Final Fantasy XIII, where your Medic heals your partner if they have lower HP than you, despite the death of the leader being the death of the whole team.

    That's because FFXIII sucked >_>

    Eh I can't stand the AI in Halo...I wanna punch the Arbiter and Marines...

    Yes. Jeminy crickets. I am stuck on a boss cause Vanille won't freaking heal Lightning. Her HP is a lot less than Snow's too, so that doesn't help. I've been doing the same fight for nearly two days. I almost had it yesterday.

    Anyway, I disagree on saying KH2's partners were bad. Aladdin saved my ass half the time, plus I spammed the reaction commands, so I had no trouble. Tron was a beast. In Days however, they were awful. I spent an hour chasing around an Emerald Serenade and Luxord wasn't helping at all.

    The Battle Tower partners in Pokemon DPPt weren't the best, either. They would constantly do stupid things. Say your two Pokemon faint and your partner is at their last one. Stop raising your stats. They are high enough to finish the opponent now! Ugh.

    SSB partners aren't good either. I can handle giant Yoshi by myself, kthx.

    And Mother 3 partners. Good Lord. Wess threw a SOCK?! Seriously!? It rarely ever does anything, unless I just have bad luck. And that thing must stink if it causes numbness. And Ionia just squeals from behind. Like...what is that supposed to...ugh. At least she/he can lend support and restore HP. So these partners aren't too terrible. But Alec takes the cake for worst partner because he doesn't know when to shut up and not pass gas. UGH!

    I thought of a lot more than I thought I would, haha.

    That annoys me greatly.

    Sheva in Resi 5 was a bad one too.

    I hate it in fifa when the player ahead of you stops their run just as you're ready to through ball it to them as well.

    Even some of the best of games seem to have terrible partner AI.
     
    The wingman AI in Ace Combat 5 is remarkably passive for the most part. Edge, Chopper, Archer, and Swordsman will keep running their mouths off, but most of the time they won't attack the enemy even when ordered to, and the only special weapons they're willing to use are the SAAM, QAAM, XMAA, and XLAA.

    The wingman AI was improved in Ace Combat Zero, but not by much. At least Pixy actually follows orders and is aggressive enough to use all the special weapons. P.J., on the other hand, seems to be so preoccupied with aerial targets that he won't engage ground targets (not even with guns or regular missiles) even when ordered.
     
    Nothing will ever be worst than GTA San Andrea's fellas.

    I remember when I was trying to conquer a ghetto, and things screwed up. The Ballas blowed my car and I was using the black junk to cover myself from AK-47's shots. Checked my weapons: Baseball Bat, Spray, and a few shotgun bullets. Checked my HP: Half. Moved the camera to see if there was any exit or something, and then I saw five Grove Street guys just talking and moving their hands. They were like 40 feet away from me, and kept talking like if they didn't hear a single shot.

    Grove 4 Life, sure...
     
    How has Left 4 Dead and Left 4 Dead 2 not been mentioned yet? The survivor bots will stand next to you and not help you half the time, and the Infected bots do really stupid things like jump out in front of the survivors as a Smoker or something like that. It just isn't very well crafted... at all.

    Standing in a sea of flames, you are about to run out of the flames. All of sudden one of the A.I stops to heal you and you can't move either, while you are in the fire burning to death. TEAMWORK FTW.

    Anyways, Left 4 Dead takes the cake for me as well. Explanation ^
     
    the original left 4 dead wasnt that bad to me, and i played it without xbox live. left 4 dead 2 though i completely agreewith
     
    The Arbiter in Halo 3 is a total moron.
