BG1's "*Sigh* I guess I have to vote then to keep you pleased" aka "Terminator vs Robocop all over again":

Foot Soldiers: These two robots are almost similar in their functionality and special abilities in that they are super-durable and have cybernetic senses that far exceed a human's own; however it is said that a T-800 can run up to 25mph without any issue whereas an EM-208 soldier can either run at 27mph on the 'road' or about 19mph off the road; its all dependent upon the battlefield on whether speed is going to be an issue; the armor-piercing capabilities of the EM-208's are debatable and the flamethrower is not going to help the EM-208 either since T-800s are built to resist fire... I guess you can see where this is going

EDGE: Even

Heavy: I am going to have to give this to the T-1 surprisingly enough - it might be primitive but it is very manoeuvrable, has very rapid firepower thanks to its chainguns, is about as durable as the ED-209 and can work both offensively and defensively whereas as you put it, the ED-209 is Omnicorp's greatest defensive unit

EDGE: Skynet

Aerial: Using a 'modern day' analogy, the comparison here is like the comparison between a VTOL warship capable of fighting and transporting troops against a Lockheed F35 Lightning; it really depends here how the battle is going to play out here since both aircraft do different jobs well - the XT can work well in the sky whereas the HK-Aerial as a drone can get into places that an XT might not (also the XT methinks cannot fire at the HK-Aerial if the latter happens to be too close to the ground troops)

EDGE: Even

Overall Winner: I'm going against the tide here and say that Skynet actually has a chance of winning here; you other voters here are underestimating the capabilities Skynet has - they managed to wage war on humanity and almost destroy the planet; Omnicorp might pack a punch in their lineup but the fact of the matter is is that they are mainly a private paramilitary organization that does nothing more than police-like duties never actually having engaged war with humanity for a long time; plus, paraphrasing a quote from the original Terminator vs Robocop battle here, no matter what the Omnicorp troops throw at Skynet's own robots, the latter can simply reboot themselves; plus given the Skynet's war with humanity and their robotic nature, they are also that bit more tactical and capable of fighting a large-scale conflict both individually and in small squads
