I am so impressed. The robotics of leg motion and creature balance/locomotion is incredibly difficult. Looks so simple but nature is very sophisticated and trying to mimic it with a machine is a mind bender.

Legs are far superior for mobility. Once that technology is mastered the sky is the limit for all-terrain robots. DARPA + that = some scary future military stuff.
