Well, I also made a Pong game long time ago. As foresaid in a thread, you will produce an almost godlike bot by precalculating the balls movement and moving the paddle to this position. In order not to be to unfair and let even a chance of winning, one can simply assign a maximum velocity to the paddle. The player could then at least beat the bot by playing with strategy.
