Robot Arena is back and it is nothing like the terrible game that started the series. The robots' physics are now completely improved, with wedging underneath other robots, the ability to slam them around and let them know who's boss, and online play. The ability to make your own is now greatly improved too; you can shape your own chassis anyway you want, add motors, controlboards, and batteries inside the chassis, but, of course, the game is much more complicated. The tournament style is now extremely long with a different array of battles/gametypes that you will play in, such as elimination, normal combat, team games, king of the hill, etc. The sound in the game is a little better before, but still has the same music playing again and again, although the music stops when you play matches. Overall, Robot Arena: Design & Destroy is a great game, and this time, it would be better to get the sequel before you get the first; no, scratch that, get the sequel, never get the first.
