The most iconic robot of RA2
« on: January 19, 2010, 12:59:54 PM »
I know this is rather odd, but what do you guys think is the most iconic robot of RA2? It could be any type of robot. Basically its the robot you think of when you think of RA2.
Any comments would be appreciated. :D

I dunno about iconic, but when I think of RA2, I think of Shinigami (cos you all know it's my favourite thing ever :P) and probably EMERGENCY, just because it's EMERGENCY.

It looks like S32 has some sort of personal vendetta against me (and my ego?)

Well, back on topic, when I think of RA2 I think of a box chassis and a HPz in one of the corners. Just the image burned into my mind. As for an actual bot, I see Scv3 Maelstrom as the representative of the game.
You got my vote for RA2 Wizard. Always and forever.

It would be funny if everyone just said TDS' Digital Apocalypse.
The rumors of my death have been greatly exaggerated.

Porn? I thought she was tying Sonic's shoelace...


Oh: and my vote goes to Emergency. It will be remembered by most as the bot that challenged us the most... pushed us to be better builders right off the bat.

Yes I do.
 
I don't know why, you just make me cringe when you post anything not related to RAW 2.
