Hmmm, I have nothing to back this up, but for some reason the first thing I thought when I heard about "time travelling robots" was that they were displaced from their timeline.

That is to say, something happened that caused them to be tossed into the temporal sea and for whatever reason they can't go back. Or something like that, as I said I don't have anything to back this up, but it is the first thing I thought of.

Haha, this could also be a much more simple explanation rather than zipping around dimensions and times like Bill and Ted.

I also thought that a 'space folding' type technology could be considered time travel, since you would be would be distorting space-time to get from A to B. that might just be boring though. If they do go with a 'displaced in time' story though, as you suggest, that would lend itself to exploration over the next three games as to where they came from and if they find their way back, will they return?
