I want Poleaxe and Joust back. And Atlaspheres is iconic.

Oh yes! I forgot those two. Tilt was also an old game but I think it got shelved because a gladiator (maybe Panther) suffered a neck injury.
There was another old one, which I'm glad they're not doing, as it was only about hitting a target before being shot by a tennis ball. Can't remember the name of it though.

Yes, Panther was injured on Tilt - I think Falcon (RIP) was injured on Joust, and a bunch got injured on the magnificent Pyramid.
Danger Zone was the shooting one. Fun game, but doesn't belong in Gladiators.

Two similar women's contenders. In the men, a 57 year old versus someone who is much lighter than me - interesting!

I thought Giant playing Collision wouldn't work - but I was wrong. I still remember Warrior looking insecure on the rings playing Hang Tough.

I think Edge would be hard enough without a Gladiator!

How can you score a whopping 47 points, have 13.5 second head start in the eliminator, up against an opponent with an injury and still lose?

I really do miss Atlaspheres.
The size difference between the manner contenders v glads and the female contenders v glads in the ring seemed kinda unfair - the little skinny bois had no chance.
It seems vaguely unfair to be able to grab the harness in the wall, as well, but I guess it's better than grabbing anything else between the legs.
Nice to see a glad get knocked off in duel, though.

Oh, and I noticed one of the make glads got an animal reference in the little crap facts, this week, which I think is a first.
