Arcade Machines for Mortal Kombat were notorious for their input reading to the point where repeated forward jump kick would lock AI into jumping back and repeatedly take damage midair.
Original NFS: Most Wanted has the infamous Rubberband Earl. Probably many more racing game examples where NPC opponents are anchored to your car coordinates and simply go as fast as you do regardless how well you cut corners.
SF Alpha 3 Shin Bison will instantly Super you for 90% hp as soon as you jump
Elden Ring input reading is so daft that some oponnents dodge INTO your arrow shot if you aim at their side.
And then there's Psycho Mantis from Metal Gear Solid which sort of made sense considering he was psychic.
Sure, but let's not pretend this isn't about Soyny installing spyware to collect data on you for the dubious benefit of retards who think they're gamers because they consume mobile slop.
Rubber banding in racing games is a sign of how well the game is made. If devs are good, you will hardly notice the ai sneaking up on you. If the devs are retards, you will get pissed. Most egregious rubber banging my ass was in nfsu2 because of fps issues and in fh5.
NFL blitz cheated constantly. You'd get clear of the opponent's defensive line and there was always a magical defender placed downfield who was twice as fast as your runner.
This concept isn't novel at all.
