Robot Survival Game Is Mech Warfare With Tinfoil Hats

Writing by Evan Ackerman on Tuesday, 15 of June , 2010 at 2:12 am

Mech Warfare is so awesome that the concept has made the jump across the pacific to Japan. The Trial of Survival Game puts multiple armed robots in combat with each other, and just like Mech Warfare, the bots are controlled strictly via remote camera systems. The Japanese version is a bit less structured… Multi-legged bots aren’t penalized with extra target plates, and wheeled vehicles are allowed. Either way, looks like fun:

The tinfoil hats, by the way, cover the hit sensors for the robots.

Or maybe they’re actually there to keep the government from brain controlling armed robots.

Or aliens.

(It’s aliens).
