umm, I'm pretty sure all beta testers signed an NDA, so you probably shouldn't be leaking beta footage, OP. But anyway, I didn't know mechs would have mirrors on their arms to reflect the lasers away. That's a good idea! They should keep that in the game! Of which this video is obviously an example!

P.S. "Watch for that kicky, stricky" <--my new pick up line

NO NO!! NOT THE GREEN LASER!!! ;)

I loved this movie soo much when I was younger.

My six year old self may or may not have switched out this VHS with my sisters VHS copy of Titanic, and returned that to the movie store..

I also may or may not have been VIGOROUSLY punished for that...


(they never found that movie though) :)


Vigorously......

All I remember from this movie is the chainsaw d**k that appeared on the bad guy's mech in the first film causing everyone in the theater to burst out laughing when this film first came out.

Robot Jox was a great, bad movie. I remember harrassing my dad to rent it for me a second time.

I also remember thinking back then, if he had just let that rocket fist hit the spectator stadium, less people would have died.....and he would have had the upper hand on uber ebil black robot who only had one foot now.

Used to watch robot jox as a kid all the time, usually while playing with my big plastic Mauler Battletech action figure thingy, such a terrible movie by todays standards, but still awesome cold war mech-ish scifi...glavin

Thanks for the post,
I had heard of Robot Jox, but Robot Wars now that's one I need to recon.
