Make your own robot & Fight!

Here is some explanation from http://www.robotshop.com/blog/verbat...ombat-game-319


Recently, Verbatim (the Japanese manufacturer of media storage products such as CDs, DVDs, USB devices, etc.) put a robot combat game on line: verbatim.jp/senshuken/

You can build your own robot by using Verbatim products.

Then you can challenge other robots, either at random or according to their level.

Be careful: this game is well made and very fun. You risk spending a lot of time playing!

Below are some videos that show examples of combat:

at first when I read before clicking on the link I thought you would be able to build a life size robot and actually box it.

That has to be one of the weirdest things I've seen in a long time.

Ah, it's rubbish, you can't even build the things, you just have to select some preformed entity.

Mehhhh... not so great. It's a better-looking version of "Mybrute". You just get to select four different colors/sizes of rectangle, and then it gives you a prefab monster composed of those four rectangles. You can watch this monster fight other monsters, but it's strictly a sit-back-and-watch game, there are no controls.

At least the music is good.

Not quite true Bongo - you can use 1 special attack, repair your 'bot once and shoot a rocket. Other than that, it's a bit silly
