Err.....I was quoting, so I thought it wasn't a problem,

furthermore, I thought using * made it all right.
Anyway, I'll remember now.

Quoting or not, swearing is still not allowed in the Arena. And as per the rules, you have to censor the entire word, not just a few letters.

A horse that's "past it's best". Have you not heard that one?

Well I knew a "nag" is sometimes used for "horse", particularly an older one. I had to look up "spavined", however.
What I actually meant, though, is that I don't remember that particular quote from the game. I'm sure it's simply that I've not paid sufficient attention to have noticed it, but nevertheless I'm unfamiliar with that particular line. When it does it show up?

You get it every now and then when the enemy general flees.

"The enemy King flees, with the grace of a spavined nag!"
Also:
"The portrait of a Royal milksop, the enemy King flees!"
"Your army is in full flight, the base-born curs!"
"Your General is ignobly quitting the field in fear!"
Nice.

The GTA series (especially Vice City) is a goldmine. The radio scripts are genius. Here's a couple of my most memorable favourites:
GTA III:
[Liberty City Survivor Commercial]
Male narrator: Tonight, the TV event that will make history: Liberty City Survivor! This takes reality TV to a whole new level! We'll take twenty recently paroled guys, equip them with grenade launchers and flamethrowers, and let them hunt each other down! It's the reality show where you just might be part of the action!
Man: I was grabbin' a sandwich at the Happy Blimp, and all of a sudden these two guys crashed through the window and started shooting at each other! I was so excited, I didn't even notice I'd been hit! After that I was hooked on Liberty City Survivor, I watch it every day in the hospital!
Male narrator: The game doesn't end until there's one man left standing! Tune in nightly, or watch the 24-hour live webcast! Liberty City Survivor, natural selection - has come home. (Sponsored by Ammu-Nation)
GTA: Vice City:
Maurice:But since you got elected, Vice City has been characterized by a government who cut aid to the poor, offered tax breaks to the rich, and paid people to dump toxic waste near schools.
Alex Shrub:Yes, we've made a lot of progress!
Maurice: And up on Capital Hill, you were instrumental in pushing through a bill allowing the manufacture and sale of "Giggle Cream", a dessert with potential lethal consequences.
Alex Shrub: Uh, not true! Only 23 people have died and several of them probably deserved it.

Yea, VCPR is one of the main reasons I still have Vice City on my computer after so long.
Maurice: So, with people being set such a bad example by big business, how are they supposed to respect each other, to act safely in society, and how are they policed by a demoralized and under-funded police force.
Alex Shrub: Well... I'm afraid that's apparently quite a difficult question, but my solution is easy. I'm going to talk for a long time about a subject not in
any way related and pretty soon people will forget about it. I'll remind people that I have a great haircut, and under my stewardship Vice City has had, on average, 15% better weather than before, while crime rates only go up if you don't turn the graph
upside down. [....]
John F. Hickory: Jumpin' Jehoshaphat on a pogo stick! You city slickers got more issues than a newsstand! Can we talk about public safety here? I ain't got all day!
Maurice: What? Is there a corn-on-the-cob eating contest you have to get to? You have some chitterlings and grits in the oven? You got a date with your sister, eh?
John F. Hickory: Hey, be nice man! I just want to talk a little politics and you made it all personal.
[Barry is a nudist.]
Barry Stark: I love you all!
Pastor Richards: EVIL-DOER! DIE, DEVIL, DIE!!! [BANG]
Barry Stark:: AHHH! OWW!
Maurice: Dios mio! You shot him! There-there-there's blood, and-and pubic hair all over the studio! Ladies and gentlemen, it is complete pandemonium here on Pressing Issues with me, the multi-award winning and soon to be executed Maurice Chavez. Barry, are you okay? Are you alive?
Barry Stark: Stop the bleeding, it-it's down there!
Maurice: Euh....do I have to? Can't you get someone else?
Just a sample of the pure awesomeness that is VCPR.....

"ALL YOUR BASE ARE BELONG TO US!"
and more recently...
"...LIKE PUPPIES FROM A BOILING CAULDRON!"
I just LOVE poorly translated games. :)
The past is a puzzle, like a broken mirror. As you piece it together, you cut yourself, your image keeps shifting. And you change with it. It could destroy you, drive you mad. It could set you free.
The past is a gaping hole. You try to run from it, but the more you run, the deeper, more terrible it grows behind you, its edges yawning at your heels. Your only chance is to turn around and face it. But it's like looking down into the grave of your love, or kissing the mouth of a gun, a bullet trembling in its dark nest, ready to blow your head off. - Max Payne, Max Payne 2: The Fall of Max Payne
"One Vision, One Purpose!" - Kane
"Peace through Power!" - Kane

"I need mana" - Virtually every character in a MMO/RPG when they run out of mana
Im pretty sure I got more, but they'll illude my immiediate memory at this moment.
You are too FAT! I can show you FAT diet!

Fallout had some of the most memorable quotes...

"I know who you are. You are walking death, a plague in human form. Where you step, blood flows like a river." - Lasher
"Don't drink glowing water." - The Vault Dweller
"How about you and I... well, you know... get together."
"Listen... uh... but I... uh... I-I like guys, okay? Whew! Uh, excuse me, I got stuff to do."

"There is a bad place where the bad mutants come from. It is bad. Vault is good. Please, go destroy bad place." - The Overseer
"What do you want?"
"To see a valley filled with my enemies' heads mounted on spears. A silent valley, except for the wind whistling through their ears."
- Thug and the Vault Dweller
"Excuse me while I gloat..." - The Vault Dweller
"I think it's Skunk, the three-eyed giant catfish, that keeps scaring everything away from my spot." - Fisherman
"Would someone please remove this mental abomination?" - Brotherhood Elder
"It was terrible. It had these big, pointy teeth." - The Vault Dweller
"Oooh, pretty, pretty stuff. Why is the moon?" - Slappy
"Love is what makes the cactus grow! Love is what makes the brahmin moo!" - Dane
You guys suck! - Duke Nukem
Now, I'm gonna hurt you! - Augustus Cole, in front of downed Locusts
I'm gonna find me some Locusts, and I'm gonna ruin their day. You know what I mean? I'm bringing the pain! - Augustus Cole in Gears of War

Hehe.
Brahmin: Moo, I say.
Vault Dweller: Where were the mutants coming from?
Harold: Everywhere! Hell, seemed like you couldn't fart without hitting one. But mostly in the northwest.
Vault Dweller: You farted Northwest?
Harold: [laughs] Pretty good... Noo...
Kane: I've heard of you. You're the one that took out Gizmo over in Junktown. Killian must have paid you a good sum for that job. Are you here for some work, maybe?
Vault Dweller: Work for this dump? You've got to be joking.
Kane: I hope for your sake that was an attempt at humor. Do not cross us, you will regret it.
Vault Dweller: Yeah, Whatever, tough guy.
Kane: I don't think you understood me. Let me clarify. If you don't watch your manners, you'll find yourself dead, tough guy.
Vault Dweller: No, let me clarify - if you don't watch it, I'll be wearing your ass for a shoe.
Loxley: Quite pleased to make your acquaintance actually... for now. Let's get the other bit of politeness taken care of, shall we? What the bloody, bloody, bloody hell are you doing here!
Vault Dweller: You talk like an idiot.
Loxley: It's a little gift from me Dad and Mum. Actually, a few generations before that. Do you like it?
Vault Dweller: No, it hurts my ears
Thug: Ride my bullet son!
Gizmo: What do you want? I'm a busy man.
Vault Dweller: I'm here to talk about the attempt on Killian's life.
Gizmo: I don't know what you're talking about.
Vault Dweller: You're a liar!
Gizmo: You know
[Gizmo Sighs]
Gizmo: I don't like it when people insult me in my own place. Izo, escort our guest out... through the window.
Harry: Harry think he beat your head now.
Flower Child: Would you like a flower mister?
Vault Dweller: Sure, I could get off on stomping it to pieces!
Thorndyke: Sir, you are injured. I can treat you if you wish. I am a healer
Vault Dweller: How Much?
Thorndyke: I am a healer, not a money lender. The cathedral sees to my needs. So I might see to the needs of others. Now let me see your injury, shall we?
Vault Dweller: Forget it. If you were any more of a quack, you'd be swimming in a pond.
The Lieutenant: Now what do we have here? I've been told you wish to divulge information of the utmost importance. I do hope so.
Vault Dweller: On one condition.
The Lieutenant: Conditions? How delightful. Go ahead, amuse me with your... condition.
Vault Dweller: Put a bag over your head so I can stand being in your presence.
Jain: Are you a child?
Vault Dweller: Lady, do I look that young to you?
Jain: Mocking our holy cause is not appreciated. You will be punished if you continue.
Vault Dweller: And who's going to do the punishing? Ooh, I'd like to request the extra hard whip, if you don't mind.
Overseer: You're back! And in one piece! How goes the search?
Vault Dweller: Not good, but I noticed the radiation count is low. Why don't we just move the people out of the vault?
Overseer: We've debated this before. You ought to know now, after being out there! You think the rest of us could survive that? Besides, I'd be out of a job! I'm management! It's not like I know how to do anything useful!
Vault Dweller: We agree on that.
Shark: You again? Geez, some people just don't learn!
Vault Dweller: Just stopped in for a quick drink.
Shark: Not a bad idea. Think I'll have one myself. OF course, you always have to wash a beer down with some bloodshed!
Gwen: I am Gwen. I'm one of Garl's advisors. Who are you?
Vault Dweller: I am the one who will sweep you off your feet, honey.
Gwen: If that is the best you can do, then I will be doing the world a favor by killing you.
Vault Dweller: What's a nice girl like you doing in a place like this?
Laura: Uh heh... Waiting desperately for someone to use that pathetic line on me.
Thug: Ever dance with the devil in the pale moonlight?
