[jonsan32]

someone's gonna die! Did you see the wires yank that chick back into the water? I hope nothing bad happens. PS I LOVE THE OLD SHOW... and I'm so glad they're bringing it back!

[dmhambro]

how fast do the tennis balls move? does anyone know the mph?

[Megan80]

The announcer says "100 mph." It looks faster than the original.

[Makron5]

Here's hoping for a second season because I am glued to it even if they did rape assault quite a bit.

[tyrizzo1]

[yungster66]

my favorite event of all time!!!!!!1

[KaiLuck]

Sign me up!

[Twiztedgoalie]

about damn time the gladiators can get embarrassed. Joust into water, assault slingshot into water. hangtough...water... same with teh wall. Now if only you could fall from skytrack...which they did not bring back suppossibly. that event ruled; same with Atlasphere. Why did they not bring back atlasphere?

[WalkerTXRNGR]

Atlasphere took up a huge amount of space. Where before they put the mats around for the different events now there is water everywhere thus no room. Which is sad because it did rule.

[Twiztedgoalie]

hmm...true. but hey...why not sky track? they could still bring that back right?

[natedoggcata]

im sure if the new AG gets a second season they will probably bring back other old events. A new sky track would be awesome. They need to bring back Totem also.

[Twiztedgoalie]

i don't remember totem.

[natedoggcata]

oops, it wasnt called totem. It was called Pole Axe. Just type "Pole Axe" in the search and you will see the event im talking about. It would be awesome on the new gladiators with the pool

[Twiztedgoalie]

pole axe....interesting game but I doubt it would keep American audiences' attention. 90% of people here can't even sit down for 5 minutes to understand the rules of soccer.

[MrRapsucks]

@Twiztedgoalie they do

[Skit20]

Whhhooooooa!

[darkism]

From what I've been seeing it looks like the attitude was "we got this pool of water and dammit, we're gonna use it!"

I can't wait. :p

[Wheeloffortunefan999]

thank god they didn't make it a pool of slime Lol

[blockheadman]

or a pool of piss

[Wheeloffortunefan999]

it seems to me that they're gonna go overboard with the water. (pardon the pun)

[Wheeloffortunefan999]

you're telling me.

[swmolen]

FREAKIN GENIUS! No more "poof" oh my target got hit.

[Jshaw71]

WOO HOO that's a nice addition to assualt, BLAM gets thrown back into a pool of water, niiice

[KRYPTONTEKKENMUFC]

Assault was known as Danger Zone in the UK version.

[natedoggcata]

Yeah and Joust was called "duel" near the end of the UK show run they had like 4 different versions of Joust with different names but they were all pretty much the same lol

[thybig88]

The gladiators go far when the contenders hit the target
