5.0 out of 5 stars 5 out of 5
Robot Wars is a phenomenal game. First i will tell you about the arenas. the original one is in london and is the one they use in the tv show. It has a floor fliper, pit, spikes flame throwers and a pit. The Volcano arena is in Tanzania and doesnt have any thing except a nuke that is ready to blast off.

3.0 out of 5 stars The show was great, the game...ok
I like the game. It is somewhat challenging, and I like that. The only real problem I have with the game is the fact that you I have the freedom that I have in other similar games. You have to choose a chasis (you cannot design one), and everything goes into predetermined places. What I mean is, although there are a wide variety of weapons, you can only place them in one...

Robot Wars is a phenomenal game. First i will tell you about the arenas. the original one is in london and is the one they use in the tv show. It has a floor fliper, pit, spikes flame throwers and a pit. The Volcano arena is in Tanzania and doesnt have any thing except a nuke that is ready to blast off. The militairy base is in russia and has a big pit. It also has a bunch of landmines and it is funny when sir killalot drives on one. The Rooftop arena is on a japanese skyscraper. It has a skylight which brakes or you could just push a robot of the side. The scrapyard arena is in Brazil. it has a crusher. The steel factory is in New York. It has a lava pit and a botomles hole. My favorite arena is the oil rig. It is in The north sea. It has a giant drill flame throwers and a gap in the fence

The robots include the winner of series 2 panic attack, the winner of series 3 and 4 chaos 2, the winner of series 5 razer, behemoth, firestorm, pussycat, terrorhurtz, mortis, thor, hypnodisc and diotior. Or you can make your own with a lot of diffrent shapes, wheels, batterys, weapons, armor and extras.

4.0 out of 5 stars GREAT GAME, December 30, 2003
A Kid's Review
This review is from: Robot Wars: Arenas of Destruction (CD-ROM)
I am a huge robot wars fan, and I got this game for my birthday, and its great its got some of the great Robot Wars competitor robots Firestorm, Behemoth, The two time Uk champion Chaos 2, Panik attack, And the World champion Razer there are a few inacurate things the damage is a little unrealistic the whole armour can be ripped away the voice overs a little off (He's not Jonethon Pierce.) but its a great game, and you can build your own robot. If you like Robot Wars you will want this game even if you don't like robot wars or you don't know what it is buy it.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the best games ever made!, December 11, 2003

Yes yes, i agree. Damage is unrealistic ect... ect... But all this
unrealism gives fun at 100%. Think about it. For example Max Payne.
No one can go in bullettime. Blame it, it's unrealistic. But you like it. So think about this game and dont blame it unless you did.

P.S I dont blame Max payne, i love the game.

This review is from: Robot Wars: Arenas of Destruction (CD-ROM)
I like the game. It is somewhat challenging, and I like that. The only real problem I have with the game is the fact that you I have the freedom that I have in other similar games. You have to choose a chasis (you cannot design one), and everything goes into predetermined places. What I mean is, although there are a wide variety of weapons, you can only place them in one of two places.

But it is a challenging game, and a fun one to play. Even with the almost pre-fab feel, I do enjoy playing it. I only regret that I cannot build a replica of my bots from the other game. I would love to attempt to rip the plating off of the house bots with it.

3.0 out of 5 stars A little uphil gameplay, January 25, 2009
= Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars

This review is from: Robot Wars: Arenas of Destruction (CD-ROM)
Great game but a little corky sums it up. You have tons of freedom to build your robot, the arenas are made pretty good, with hazards and so on. The only problem i have with this game is the physics seem to have tons of glitches. You get stuck on a tiny edge, you hit something, you go flying here and there, some one rams you or hits you, you get stuck or again you go flying. I'm not saying this happens all the time or everywhere but they happen making the over all fun of the game not so fun any more. Next, the game is made as animation, not live action so it feels like it lags a bit. There are slow moving weapons in the game so until their animation of closing or opening is done, you are sort of stuck there waiting for it. The next is the physics of weapons. In real life when you flip some one, they can go in a million directions. In this game, where they go is very limited and very animated.

That sums the game up.
