Battlebots sucks. the announcers exhagerate things so much. the only god robot fighting show is Robot Wars. it's Brittish, and the first in it's kind. they have better robots there as well. and one thing Battlebots also doesn't have. HOUSE ROBOTS!!!!! yes. house robots. robots who were built by the creators of the show as a little extra carnage. they dwell in the corners, and whenever a robot gets too close, they can destroy it. my personal is "Sir Killalot". he is undefeated and REALLY big. there is this other houserobot, called Sargeant Bash. he has a fucking flamethrower.

Battlebots is therefore just a lame and stupid ripp-off. Battlebots sucks and should be destroyed by the house robots from Robot Wars.

Welcome to two years ago. :/

I think BattleBots is cancelled anyway. And for the record; unless the robots are cyborgs with lasers and chainsaws, and have the ability to scream really loud, all robot fighting shows are really stupid.

Hey, Jamesman, there is this live robot show, and they use flamethrowers, chainsaws, jet engines and even Tesla Coils. TESLA COILS!!!! I don't know what it's caled though, and they don't show it on TV either.

RELEVANT PART:
Battlebots is getting pretty gay. The announcers really overdramatize and all the thing has turned into is "Hey look at Carmen Electra :eek :secks"

As for Robot Wars.... Sir Killalot.... end of story :(

My team plans to get back together and build a fighting robot to go and compete in reigonal competitions that start up from time to time

IRRELEVANT READ AT YOUR OWN DISCRETION:
I helped to build a robot with a team from my School (home site is www.gpzone.com/robotics)

We built it for a box stacking game.... which is shitty

But it has mandibles and can lift stuff. It's cool.

And it glows in the dark

And here this asshole is driving the robot.... he's about to break the axle (lol he doesn't know it though because he's a jerk). I'm second from the right in the white jacket.

Whoops he broke the axle

Old school Robot Wars was better. Instead of just beating the shit out of each other, the robots had to be capable of passing through a few obstacle courses. Plus they had the utterly badass "house robots" who during the battle would swoop in to fuck up the robots. I know there was a US version with a wrestler or something hosting, but i'm talking about the one form the UK with Lister as the host.

Basically, Robot Wars was fun till it got popular. Before, it was just ordinary guys building stuff with often useless weapons, like really weak spikes or pickaxes. And the teams would be kids and their dads, and the kid would completely fuck up and drive their robot straight into one of the houserobots or something.

Later on it just got boring, no more obstacle courses or games other than fighting, and the participants were just hardcore tech geeks who thought they were amazing for driving around a lawnmower on TV.

I watched the first two series' (seasons) of Robot wars, then I realized exactly how boring and dull it was :/
I dunno, I guess it just doesn't deserve to be called "Robot Wars", it should be called....."Remote Control Cars With Garbage Cans And Crappy Spikes Attatched To Them Wars".

The UK show is definitely much better than the US one. You can't compete with the Red Dwarf guy, especially when he makes the little kids on the losing team cry when he insults them. :)

Wasn't Bill Nye on BattleBots, though? :/
