  • dominator 2 just was like STABBITY STABBITY!!

  • @XzeroX999 toro flips bot you must be talking about night mare

  • that match clearly should have gon to firestorm he flipped dominator loads and dominator only got his axe in twice

  • JP wins hands down!

  • Sorry ment flipper not axe.

  • "Firestorm with his 'narley'? newmatic axe!" WTF? The UK commentator is much better.

  • Funny how this video gets nearly 200,000 views since it's only a Semi-Final match.

  • us fuck off robot wars

  • That is the voice actor for the CO "General Herman" In the video game, Battalion Wars.

  • This commentator = Jonathan Pierce Wannabe! 

  • Where the fuck is Jonathan Pearce?!

  • @TyrantTG002 dead i think no joke

  • i absolutley hate this commentator, hes a motherfucker

  • Cool!

  • Firestorm 2? looks more like a burning wedge =|

  • back when g4 was tech tv

  • Firestorm didn't win because he didn't actually do anything. Flipper robots are very over rated. If you can do some damage with them, then it's good. If you can flip them out of the arena, then it's great. But to flip them on their, and they have a self righting mechanism...that just gives them style points. Also the axe proved it's a decent one as it actually got stuck in the outer shell of Firestorm. Good match, Dominator deserved the win on style.

  • firestorm should have won that... he was doing all of the fighting.

  • haha, I remember I loved this show as a kid, but the british guy was so much better

    why do they have robots that flip each other? LAME!

  • Yeah, that's a self-righting mechinisum...

  • I love firestorm, he was my favourite bot.

    As well as the one designed like a tank.

    But nothing can beat Sir Killalot

  • hey i'm a nuetral party i'm Aussie and i really prefer the british guy to the american guy

  • @computercod5 because u r a descendant of a britsh convict ? ........LOL....

  • irish actually. plus after a few years of convits, actual settlers came so yeah. least we didnt use blacks as slaves ay?

  • good man, stick it to him. GO THE IRISH!!!! :)

  • lol

  • mmmh..thats not very neutral of you

  • @computercod5 Hell I'm an American and I like the British guy better than the American. The American guy sounds like a mix between a surfer dude and a total hick. It's nasty.

  • @computercod5 Same

  • @computercod5 I prefer US robot wars

  • @Konformation07

    Battlebots? You couldn't flip anyone OOTA, and the robots weren't as good good as RW. However, the designs of the Battlebots robot were more interesting. I still prefer RW.

  • @XzeroX999 no Robot Wars USA the show in America and it's different than battlebots

  • @XzeroX999 your right but battlebots had toro, AND TORO DESTROYS ALL

  • @computercod5 your well cool

  • I have the PS2 game for Robot Wars and I think they should bring it back, everyone who saw it loved it and it was such a huge thing.

    I prefer the English commentator for the programme, this one is kind of weird. The previous one was just totally butt-kicking :)

  • he makes it sound like your watching wrestling.

  • i never really like robot wars until they put it off air i think they should bring it bak

  • i loved that game so much. i still have it :)

  • I HAVE THE GAME TOO 4 THE ps2. For me , prob my fav game. BRING BACK ROBOT WARS!!!

  • I usually hate Firestorm but to be honest they deserved to go through along with Panic Attack.

  • how much is an robot wars signed hat worth ppl anyone no?

  • ok enough about the guy's voice to us Americans british voices maybe annoying so...yeah..

  • Haha! The american commentator is awful. That's probably because I grew up with JP's awesome commentating though.

  • i never really liked the people talk about thier bot in the prefight... i just want DESTRUCTION!

  • If people want the UK commentator.. maybe some UK git should get off his rear and upload their own version lol

  • It was a great fight, but the american voice is really annoying.

  • What will you leave to your children?

  • Firestorm should have won that :(

  • To be frank, he was more agressive, but there was pretty much no way he could have won this.

    Dominator has a self-righting mechanism and Firestorm lacks the flipper power to throw him over the edge.

  • I thought Firestorm should have won in the end. Dominator axed a couple of holes in Firestorm but Firestorm was far more aggressive. I guess style and control were more or less even though.

  • What's the point of being aggressive if your opponent is invilnerable to anything you can throw at him? Dominator could have won, given time... Firestorm was fighting a hopeless battle against an opponent with a self-righting mechanism.

  • what happend to jP????!!!!!!!

  • taped in america

  • He was never replaced, this version was shown on American televison, and so has an American comentator...

  • These robots look so primitive after you watch Series Seven.

    This fight took place over nine years ago.

  • Comment removed

  • You should see the the series 1 and 2 machines then =P

  • ok dont hurt urself!

  • Dominator 2 improved a lot for series 6

  • So tru!

  • Sounds like the WWE commentator

    This programme ROCKS

  • why is the commentator americin usually its JP

  • this american annoys me

  • Dominator 2 wins

    What the hell , Firestorm Smashed him!

  • Was this just redubbed when it was shown in America?

  • the judges don't know what they're doing, firestorm flipped dominator 2 more than 3 times, firestorm shoulda won. And hypno-disc should have won against the tornado cheaters

  • FUCK I MISS ROBOTWARs

  • LONG LIVE FIRESTORM!!!!!

  • HEY ENGLAND! As much as i admire you guys (a lot) it isn't fair to us Americans to get dubbed about stuff that we may do worse! P.S. JP is way better than this guy tho.

  • firestorm shud of won!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • I know nothing about these competitions...But...Firestorm­, hands down...

    Heh...I felt like I needed to post that...

  • i wish the put it back on tv :(

  • HOW the fuck did dominator 2 win? Firestorm was all over him!! If it was me, it would be firestorm, never mind, firestrom is the best looking robot in the world, and one of the best!

  • cool

  • Firestorm 2 should win!

  • I agree. It was way more agressive.

  • don't watch then.

  • it sounds wierd with an american commentating on an english match

  • I loved robot wars, it was the love of my life!!!! I LOVE SEARGEANT BASH!!!!

  • i used to love these shows but hey stopped filming in australia

  • No Johnny Pearce?

  • This no longer airs does it??

  • no =(

  • not in the US anyway.

  • i think battle bots still does but its not near as good

  • That was a Great Fight :D

  • Firestorm should of won.

  • Firestorm is from UK, so is Robot Wars, infact please tell me this US Robot Wars is over, cos maybe they'll bring back the good Robot Wars.

  • no dominator only got flipped and had no damage.

  • one of the best matches they ever had in the series. I used to go around designing RC Robots with a similar concept to firestorm but with a pair of buzz saws behind the flipper.

  • This has just been redone with commentary for showing in america.

  • What? Can't they stand the British Accent?

  • You find most things get re-done with a local commentary. Mythbusters in England gets an english guy doing the reading, but i much prefer the american version.

  • the re-dubbed commentary is really annoying on the US airing of this show. Makes it so much worse. It doesn't make any sense to do that. It detracts from the authenticity of the show, and Americans love British accents anyway.

  • I have no idea why they do it. They do it to be assholes I guess. (television companies)

  • I remember i was kinda obsessed with this show when i was a kid.

  • The commentator is changed because americans cant understand JP :) sad really

  • Your just racist and don't know why they changed the commentator so just shut up.

  • Really? well its true buddy, americans need us to translate Jeremy clarck on Top gear for them AND when america gets TOP GEAR they will have someone who will copy word for word what jeremy said. Plus England have Still Game Which is translated/Subtitled because of the slang talking. Scotland ( where i live ) has Pimp my ride UK where we have some faggot jumping about like a fake slim shady, America has a diffrent commentator cause they wouldent understand JP buddy thats all!

  • Americans can understand JP so thats not why they got rid of him. I've watched RW and other sporting events where he is the commentator and can understand him just fine. Try to come up with something better next time.

  • Commentator changed. Robot Wars was US 1994-97, then 97-03 it was UK.

  • However just to clarify this was the later and the UK version, also the US and UK versions were seperate and no relation as far as series go. Wow its like terets i just cant help myself, why do i care??!?

  • wat ever happened r=to J.P.

  • wat happened to this show i love this show they never show this on tv anymore me and my dad was about to go on that show BUT THEY STOPPED SHOWING IT. WE WERE AFRAID THAT if they stopped showing this show we would look like a fool but anywho i love this show go chaos 2. he is the best robot i have ever seen on this show he is undefeated. i have met chaos two. i did an inter view with George Francis and Ian Swann. they sound like a nice team. they took over 250 hours to make this robot.

  • Chaos 2 is not undefeated. The show has not been on for along time.

  • I definatly prefered the other guy.

  • this commentator sucks, Pearce was better by a long way & why couldn't they keep it the same as the UK one when it went to America?

  • Are you talking about when they aired it in America or when the show was American based? Robotwars was an American show before the UK ever had it.

  • I know robot wars was a live event in San Fran from 1994-1997. But this version of robot wars was supposed to be UK. Anyway, wouldn't it have cost more to add the extra commentary that to just keep JP. They should have kept it as it was.

  • Yeah they should of kept JP. He was easy to understand and was a good commentator. It's wasn't Robot Wars themselvs that changed the commentator it was the TV channels it aired on. It's all about ratings so if the show was not getting good enough ratings the TV channel will cancel the show or change it a bit. Robot Wars ratings were not that high with Battlebots on the air so the had to change it and after awhile cancel it.

  • das warn noch zeiten als es das im deutschen fersehn gab =(

  • jep^^

  • They dubbed it with American commentators!?!

    What happened Jonathan Pearce!!

  • I forgot all about this show. I was watching Spaced the other day and they made a reference to it so that made me think of it again.

  • god i miss this show
