This is creepy beyond belief. When the guy kicked it, and it reacted, i literally screamed. A SCREAM OF JOY.


God, i want one of these to ride to school. Robotic horse that doesn't shit or need to be fed. I could be like zorro...only like, an awesome zorro...

the thing can carry 340 pounds, so maybe me and a light friend...yea...you drive it with a wiimote, that would be fun.

They use the engine as a generator, nothing more, so they got to find a solid based energy source or something. Something that isnt fricking loud.

Kinda looks like a hunter, except with 4 legs. And much slower.

Holy crap. How it reacted to ice...

Wonder how much it cost to make.

it probably costs the amount of a nice luxury car. The legs might very well be the most expensive thing next to the computer, seeing as how they have radial actuators etc etc in multiple weight supporting joints.

0_o That thing moved almost exactly like an animal on ice would. I had no idea that was possible.

I was just about to post this.

I wasn't amazed...

Until I saw him kick it, then all the stuff after that was badass. That thing is freaky cool.

I wonder how something like that (which is coded to adapt to the terrain) would react to a dynamic terrain.

Wow, that thing is freaky, and cool, both at the same time. It's freaky how it walks, and how it reacts after being kicked, or sliding on ice. It's cool, well, because there's no way that can't be cool.

Wow... That IS amazing, I didn't know that they had come this far with legged robots yet... If they can do that, they can do Mechwarrior shit. I want a Mechwarrior.

Holy shit mang guy. Those guys are crazy smart. I swear the thing scares me how "alive" it looks with how it avoids falling. But I wonder, if it's just they guys controlling it that makes it sort of weave side to side as it walks.

Why stop at Mechwarrior when you could have a Mythos?
