Deadliest Warrior

[Deku]

Has anyone here been keeping up with Spike's "Deadliest Warrior"? What they do is they pair up two warriors, sometimes from different time periods, and they calculate who would win in a fight. They bring in two experts each in the arts compared, and they test a few of their weapons' effectiveness on dummies closely composed to that of an actual human body, and in some cases a pig carcass.

After all is said and done, they calculate everything from the weapons, down to skill, armor, speed, etc. and put it into a computer to simulate the battle 1000 times. At the end of each show, they actually show a staged battle between both warriors- and let me tell you, its awesome. Match ups they've done so far are:

Apache vs. Gladiator
Ninja vs. Spartan
Viking vs. Samurai
Pirate vs. Knight
Mafia vs. Yakuza
and next week:
American Green Beret Vs. Russian Spetsnaz

Man this is gonna be good.

I'm insulted there is no Ninja vs Pirate yet.

What a stupid show.

[Uximadesk]

I haven't gotten around to watching it. Is there some other channel where I can see it?

What a stupid show.

Just because they haven't made a match-up you wanted to see doesn't make it a stupid show. Immature statements like that make me cringe on the inside. While it is true that they got a lot of bad feedback for not putting the Pirate against the Ninja, I don't think they plan on appealing to the internet crowd.

I was joking, Still I don't think it's my type of show, sorry about that.

I liked their use of the baseball bat :P
Simple, but it got the edge over the nunchakus.
I really did want the mafia to win, I'm glad they won it.
Honestly, the whole way through, I thought the Yakuza was going to win. I liked the big cigars they had.

haha. I agree on all counts. 
I have to admit that I loved the use of a baseball bat. that was totally killer.

[Hi no Seijin]

I've been meaning to watch this show, but I always end up watching something else.

Meh, well, they'll probably put this on DVD, and I can watch it then.

OMIGAWD!

You must play this game.

It's a MGS so it's really long and hard to explain.

[Deku]

I've never played any MGS game all the way through actually. Its essentially because I've always been a Nintendork. ;D

[The Glamour Nazi]

Twin snakes was for Nintendo.

I think.
