Generally, Real Robots in anime shows try to be realistic. Anything you could expect from a Sci-Fi movie. No bizarre weapons or hot-bloodedness, for the most part. It sometimes depends on the actual feel of the show, though.

Some good examples of Real Robots are Gundams (minus G Gundam), Macross mechs, and Fafners.

Look at Super Robot.

Get the Real Robot mug.
A type of giant robots in anime shows that usually have flashy moves, hot-blooded pilots that constantly keep shouting attack names, ultra cheesy plots and lines, and often involve combining several vehicles together.

Examples of Super Robots are Mazinger Z, Getter Robo, GaoGaiGar, Go Lion (AKA Voltron), Godannar, and G Gundam.
