And probably not just as a manner of speaking. Who could, in his own words, break the president in two with his bare hands. Because this senator is a crazy, nano-machine enhanced, football playing, super weapon powering, foul mouthed member of the senate. His explanation? Nanomachines, son!Ĭan he be any more clear with this? You may be able to mess with some politicians, but not this one.

Like when his skin suddenly turns into an armor. Senator Armstrong is a man of many surprises. It’s simply a total lack of common sense. Raiden is now sure of it: it’s not greed that drives this man. He did change his mind about Armstrong, but not quite in the direction the senator was aiming at. After listening to the senator’s passionate speech during which every point he makes is underlined by the sole of his shoe ramming down on Raiden’s chest, Raiden has to adjust his views about the politician. During his fight with Raiden he lays out his plans for a new America – while beating Raiden up at the same time. There’s a lot of things you can accuse senator Armstrong of, but indecisiveness isn’t one of them. You’re not greedy… you’re batshit INSANE! Sidenote: this quote is a reference to the antiwar song ‘Give Peace a Chance’ by John Lennon, but with the word peace replaced by… well, you get the idea. Yeah, if this guy isn’t an evil maniac, then no one is. Because hey, don’t judge a book by its cover… or, don’t judge warfare by its use of brainwashing children, who can be molded into committing all sorts of atrocities, “and there’s nothing like a good atrocity to keep a war going’. No, he goes above and beyond and calls to question the negative imago of war itself. No, but seriously, this guy isn’t even trying to justify war as a means to an end. That’s not unreasonable, right? Come on, give war a chance, it might surprise you. And if that wasn’t enough, there’s another little fact Raiden considers: this sword isn’t even his. He is a very good reason to draw your sword as a tool of vengeance.

Senator Armstrong is one of those people. But some people just beg you to make an exception. Okay, so after being able to quell the bloodthirsty demon hiding inside Raiden’s psyche, he embraces his purpose as a protector of justice, not as a spirit of vengeance. I said my sword is a tool of justice, not used in anger, not drawn in vengeance. Here are the ten most memorable, craziest and funniest pieces of dialogue from the game. The action filled spin off featuring cyborg Raiden is not really considered a canonical part of the Metal Gear timeline, but that doesn’t mean it doesn’t have any entertaining quotes. Exactly three years ago today, on February 19th 2013, Metal Gear Rising Revengeance was released in North America.
