Quotes[]

It's called Bloodshot. A chalk-skinned, unkillable target interdiction machine. Possibly the most advanced piece of military hardware this country has produced since--well, since your H.A.R.D. Corps wetworks implants.

-- Simon Oreck

Nothing's "unkillable," boss man.

-- Shakespeare

Then call it "nothing," because this thing's got onboard nanites, micromachines in its bloodstream, which can heal any battle wound sustained. -- Bloodshot is extremely dangerous.
