Moving you to Artificial Intelligence, and renaming your topic from "AI in Game Design" Sources ?" to "resources for videogame AI development".

AIGameDev.com is the single best place for game AI information. "Worth it" is a relative term that only you can evaluate for yourself.

All 3 of my blogs are in my sig. Thanks for the nod. Wish I had more time to post. *sigh*
Also, just checked with Alex Champandard of AIGameDev. He pointed me to his page.

He told me how much he was planning on charging for it... but I don't know if that is public info. Suffice to say, it is very reasonable for the individual hobbyist or enthusiast.

I just picked a copy of Artificial Intelligence for Games (2nd edition) and it's truly excellent. It describes in-depth pretty much any game AI topic you would ever need, and it's very readable and concise. Here's the book's website:

If you're just getting started, though, Programming Game AI by Example is one of the standard introductory books on game AI, and a lot of people (myself included) recommend it.

On the book issue, Mat Buckland's "AI... by Example" is usually considered the #1 intro to AI book. (Ian's is good too from what I've heard.)

Sorry to "steal" the thread, but if I want to dive a bit into normal AI is Artificial Intelligence: A Modern Approach a good choice?

Yep. AI:AMA covers a bit of everything. Good stuff.
