the German monologue - 'Fashioned from the Ruins'

the Japanese monologue - 'Ledendary Daimyo'

the Polynesian monologue - 'Chosen by the Heavens to Unite'

the Russian monologue - 'Every Manner of Disaster'

the Samurai Invasion of Korea monologue - 'Struggle for Control of the Lands'

Myself, I love the Polynesian one, but the SoL one is pretty epic too.


Might I suggest a last one of these polls after they're finished that contains any unused audio, provided there is enough? Also, maybe post the link to the new poll in the old one topic.

Big Ben.

It rings true for every game of V I've played thus far.

It might be nice if you included links to the full text, I honestly can't remember most of the quotes in this poll.
