I know where Uber got the idea for the Jackbot! :D

So I'm sittin here and my 3 yr old daughter is watchin Astro Boy, and I look over at the tv and see this:



Is it bad that I instantly thought of the Jackbots when I saw this? :lol:


How many of you even remember the cartoon??? I LOVED it, I remember watching it every morning while waitin for the schoolbus haha

Ha, thats awesome, but that wasn't an inspiration for the Jackbot.

Was it the iron gaint?

ya I didn't really think it was, just wanted to post this pic for fun


So this leads me to a question: What WAS your inspiration for the bots? Just a good imagination or what?

We went through different designs and iterations until we settled on the current one. There wasn't a single inspiration.

Pffft, how can we trust you? Its not like you are the artist director.

lol

Whenever I hear a Jackbot, I picture Jack Splicer from Xiaolin Showdown going 'JACKBOTS. ATTACK!'

OMG! I'm not the only one! xD

Whenever I hear Jackbot I think of Jack Burton



It's all in the reflexes...

Is it possible to make a bad reference to Big Trouble in Little China?
You do have a point, when the jackbot comes you can feel the wind is rising.

And as a followup, can MNC 2 be the Lo Pan edition?

If it is I've never seen it!

Now THAT'S a class based team shooter right there. It could be like Left 4 Dead in the sense that it's 4 vs 4 and both sides have wildly different playstyles.

It's Egg Shen's army
-Egg Shen
-Jack Burton
-Wang Chi
-Eddie Lee

VS

Lo Pan and the Three Storms
-Lo Pan
-Lightning
-Thunder(suicide explosion special)
-Rain

Fight through Chinatown, the whore house, Lo Pan's underground lair, and more! Unique character abilities like Egg Shen's Invincible Drug Juice or MacReady's flamethrower. Wait, wrong movie. Will you fight to rightfully take back Gracie Law and Miao Yin? Or will you dominate the opposition so you can sacrifice Gracie and live out your earthly pleasures with Miao Yin?

Get on it Uber, or be sent to the Hell of the Upside Down Sinners!
