New BattleBots Series

Post by Lee »

Did anyone watch the first episode of the new BattleBots on ABC?
Some awesome machines and carnage.
For those on this side of the pond, you can download it using Vuse or Limewire etc.
This was the fight with the most destruction.

Cool. Wonder if the crew from Mythbusters will put together something to run in it.

No. I have been watching there youtube channel, Tested. They have some videos of the build up.
On there podcast, Adam talks about Blender, and how it was banned on the first series for being too dangerous :)

Hey Lee. That's a unique competition that the wife and my self like to watch. Her son is one of those computer wizard and some how this show reminds her of her son and his friends. The big bang theory also!
