I hate that show, they are seriously biased , notice its always european warriors that win, Sparton vs, samurai, samurai loses, ninja vs whoever it was, ninja loses...... for real?, what the hell criteria do they use, do they think simply becouse asians are small in stature and arnt as big(phisicaly strong) as as european warriors that they don't stand a chance?, what balony lol.
The samurai dedicated their lives to perfect their skill for use in battle and were ready to die for their daimyo, also the samurais sword/s " the katana and or wakazashi" were far more advanced than the heavy poorly made craptacular swords that european warriors used, not to mention they also trained in hand to hand combat, bow and arrow, spears, etc . In reality, speed, stammina and skill beat brute force every time.
I do like the game on the X box 360 though, atleast in the game, its the most skilled player that wins.
