They way it runs is sooooo funny.
Looks like it needs a crap, badly.
hee hee

edit: Link should work now

[RErender]

cool, it looks a bit taller now. hmm they teach it how to mop and clean yet?

btw, the link doesn't work but a search for asimo finds it.

looks like it could carry an assault rifle.

im waiting to see him jump. a proper jump, not a hop. his ballance has come a long way since the early days but he runs like a pansy (no disrespect to any pansys reading this). a proper running is actually in a possition where his center of gravity is way out of wack and he would fall if no for the forward motion, it looks like asimo is trying to keep his ballance too much. he needs to live a little. live on the wild side. drink some high refined motor oil. kick back and relax.

could be the future of ground warfare.
