Earlier today, I found out about “Metal Wolf Chaos,” a Japanese game which uses an American flag as a backdrop for a decidedly campy science-fiction story. We’ve been robbed! On the plus side, I find it hard to hate on a game where you play the President as he commandeers a mecha and serves as a one-man counterrevolution. Preserve, protect and defend, indeed!

Here’s a sample conversation from the game, which features the President as the main protagonist (the mecha-pilot featured above). Not since Independence Day has a President kicked so much ass.
PRESIDENT: What’s my schedule like today?
SECRETARY: You’ve got a conference and dinner party at the Japanese embassy regarding wildlife protection.
PRESIDENT: Oh yeah… sorry, but I have to cancel that. I’m heading out to save America!
