Codec Conversations: Difference between revisions

Note: The "La li lu le lo" is a nickname for an anonymous group in the ''Metal Gear'' series only known by their codename, "The Patriots". The Colonel's speech during this codec call is a direct reference to an event in ''Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty'', when the main character (Raiden) realizes that the Colonel that he had been taking orders from for the whole mission was just an artificial-intelligence look-alike of the real Colonel Campbell that Snake took orders from, in the first ''Metal Gear Solid''. During the final parts of the game, the AI Colonel goes haywire and begins to utter disturbing statements (i.e. "Raiden, turn the game console off right now!" and "Honestly, though, you have played the game for a long time. Don't you have anything else to do with your time?"). Another thing to note is how in ''Metal Gear Solid 4'', soldiers and PMCs who are under the use of nanomachines cannot simply call The Patriots by name - their nanomachines force them to refer to the Patriots as "La li lu le lo". This line is one of the strange phrases that the AI Colonel says to Raiden, which is also directly referenced in this codec conversation. Also it is unknown if the Colonel is actually a unknown character disguised as Colonel, the same AI Colonel from MGS2 or just the real Colonel who is acting strange.
