Change I can believe in: the presidential mech-wars of Metal Wolf Chaos
Offered as a counterpoint to 1UP Retro Blog's timely "worst presidents of gaming" article (a list including, of course, Bad Dudes' own burger-loving Mr. President), I submit gaming's greatest commander in chief, the hard-boiled, dual-wielding mech-pilot Michael Wilson of From Software's 2004 import-only Xbox title Metal Wolf Chaos.
Wilson not only soldiered bravely against the rebel army of his vice president, Richard Hawk, but commanded one of gaming's most fantastically ridiculous entrances, exploding through the West Wing walls.
Microsoft, if you're listening, now that we've ushered in a new era: now's the time to correct your prior error and bring this to the States as a special Xbox Originals download.

Wow. That sincerely looks like the best game ever.

The game is over-the-top cheesy craziness. Great fun, and a shame it was never brought over. It even has full English audio. There was a demo on an OXM disc however, which is where I first got to see it.

YES. Metal Wolf Chaos is still easily one of my most favorite Games I've Never Played.

Yeah, this game makes me want an Xbox, and I've never owned a console.
