I bet if you checked it you'd find no bots in battle mode. It is slightly annoying, since it hurts the mode (no bots doesn't hurt Stunt at all since that one's just so much fun to play... :) ), but given that the Stunt and Battle modes, along with a bunch of stuff in the main mode, were all added to the original arcade game just for the home versions I don't mind much... and the fact that the battle mode is very well done doesn't hurt much.
But as I said before, whether 2049 has it or not isn't the point, since there have been more than enough games that have had bots in battle mode to show that Nintendo of all people, home of so many top quality games, should have it in their own games. No question.
Anyway, as I said, if 3DO can do some fine comp AI (well somewhat easy, but that whole game is easy...) in BattleTanx, why in the world can't Nintendo? Its totally bizarre... yeah, their time is limited, but still. If they had really wanted to I'm sure they could have fit in the time, given how major a feature that would be...
