The Chessmaster series tries to do this by some means.  While you can change a
program to make it more attacking or favor a particular opening, I don't think
we can *really* make it play like a chess superstar.  I think that the concept
is a fun idea, but imagine trying to make a program play like *you*.  I think
when you think of it that way the difficulty becomes more obvious.
