The oft-delayed giant robot fight has finally taken place. On Tuesday, Team USA's mechs scrapped it out with Japan's Kuratas in an abandoned steel mill for the world to watch. There could only be one victor, and it proved to be [snipped for your pleasure]

[25 minute broadcast of the event]

Those not familiar with the rumblings about this fight can catch up from Engadget's original coverage, and our own in 2015, and earlier this year.

    I just skimmed it and could not stand the annoying voiceover. The guy sounded like an annoying teenager in an adult body, overacting excitement without actually being excited at all. To be fair, this seems to be what reality TV mostly sounds like these days, but omg who actually likes that voice? Maybe they need it to make up for the aforesaid lameness of the actual action being narrated?

    Starting Score:    1  point
    Karma-Bonus Modifier   +1  
    Total Score:   2
