i think they should actually make a game based on Robot Wars.................but anyway.....I think that it's getting slightly boring now...i also think they should change the arena and change the battles they have to make them more exciting.
They could either...
Use Mech style robots... allowing you to build design your own from kit... and upgrade over time...
Or...
Try a Micro Machines type of gameplay... concentrating on Multiplayer rather than singleplayer... wide range of choices... could work well in a 3D envoron... probably no a full price title though huh?
Did'nt they do a Star Wars droid maker program a year or two back?

I think that a robot wars game would only be good if you could build your own robot, and use, or play against some of the existing robots, like Razor. They should include the races and the gauntlet from the 1st series. The battles could be like the battles of Carmageddon, just in an arena instead of a race course. Also the graphics and controls must be good or nobody will ever go near it!
A robot wars game would be extremely limited if it stuck to the formula of the TV programme. One attack move and a lot fo pushing each other around, I cant see it working unless they made it into something else. If they did not stick to the TV programme's format then it would only be RobotWars in name!!! No win situation.
Also to be realistic the controls would have to be really lame so that it would be as challenging to manouver your 'robot' as it is for contestants on the programme. This would just get on gamers nerves and the whole game would flop.
It wouldnt work as a game unless it underwent drastic changes and then as I said it wouldnt be RobotWars, which if you are honest about this is just a bit of low budget, trashy entertainment!!
