8 More Incredible Gaming Characters Who Only Appeared In ONE Game
2. Senator Armstrong - Metal Gear Rising: Revengance
Now normally you'd never find a politician gracing the same pages as a list with the word "incredible" as normally the only way that description would be used is if it was followed by "disappointment to our country" or as a haughty response when shown next year's pathetic public service spending budget, however, I won't lie when it comes to Senator Armstrong, he is such a brilliant s**t of a villain that you can't help but love his scenery-chewing antics.
And trust me when you're in a game as over the top and chaotic as Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance, you have to do a lot to stand out, which the Senator does in spades thanks to his ridiculous physique and appearance that looks like old-timey WWF wrestler IRS had been paying taxes right into his veins.
In this example "taxes" are just a shedload of steroids.
Still what makes the Senator truly a force to be reckoned with is the fact that he will hit as hard as a surprise audit, absolutely wiping the floor with the player thanks to his nanomachine-powered punches and grabs. All of this makes for a deliciously over-the-top villain that feels like part pantomime and equal parts punishing, meaning you'll be smiling ear to ear listening to his taunts and even more when you finally cave his smug skull in.
